Tiger Cue Identification
I found this Tiger cue and the shaft seems to be in rough condition. I thought about buying a new shaft but I want to know if it will even be worth buying a new shaft for this cue.
Does anyone know the model of this Tiger cue?
I have been looking online to see what model it is, and it looks similar to the Tiger Classic Series but it doesn't match any of the color schemes on the tiger website so I'm unsure.

I believe Dennis Orcollo plays with one. Looking at your shaft you may also be able to clean it up.
Nice cue!
