Eureka cue

The Eureka cue by Burroughs & Watts Limited.

The Eureka is a double-butted cue, the first edition having four striped ebony splices above four tulip splices. They would have maple or ash shafts and we have heard of, but not seen, a pear shaft.

The second edition has a jet-black ebony butt above tulip. The collector will usually want the first edition. The second edition is a reasonable player although some find them too thin with the shape of the butt feeling a little strange. People do like the double butted design, which makes them quite a fancy cue.
