My first custom ordered cue was a Viattorre, back in 2007. Viattorre cues are made by Jackson Tan and team from the Philippines, but he has since retired.
This cue is a solid player. The workmanship is excellent i.e. the inlays, ringworks, points and veneers are really well executed. Its unfortunate and a loss to the pool world that Jackson Tan is not making cues anymore.
Cue specs:
Points, Buttsleeve: Snakewood with flaming veneers
Inlays: Ivory recut diamonds and ivory ovals
Buttcap: Ivoy
Ringwork: Veneered ringwork with dash variation
Wrap: Genuine lizard wrap
Joint: Ivory flat faced 3/8-10
