The
Tempest LC-2 pool cue is a "tribute cue". It was inspired by
a popular design from a well-known Italian cue maker. The
forearm is gray-stained birdseye maple. There are four
floating points in the forearm. The top halves of the points
are synthetic ivory kites, ringed in ebony. The lower halves
of the points are blue pearlescent triangles, also
surrounded in ebony. The points are separated by synthetic
ivory ovals, ringed in ebony. The forearm is set off from
the wraps by a series of rings: thin black, thicker metallic
blue, thin black, very thick persimmon maple, thin black,
thicker metallic blue, and thin black. The wraps are pressed
and waxed black Irish linen, having a very smooth,
leather-like feel. The butt sleeve is persimmon-stained
birdseye maple, featuring ebony-ringed white oval inlays
separated by ebony-ringed blue pearlescent hourglasses. The
butt sleeve is set off with metallic blue rings and black
rings. The butt cap is black. The joint is polished
stainless steel. The joint pin is a 5/16 x 14 size. The
shaft is a specially-selected grade of hard rock Canadian
maple. A fiber linen ferrule, 13mm in diameter, tops the
shaft, and is fitted with a Le Pro tip. The shaft has a pro
taper. This cue comes with joint protectors and a black
sleeve.
