Balabushka Signature GB23 Pool Cue — Birdseye Maple with Ebony Points, MOP Diamonds, and Balabushka Signature

The Balabushka Signature Series carries forward the legacy of George Balabushka — widely regarded as the greatest cue maker in the history of American pool. These are not original Balabushka cues from the 1960s and 70s, but licensed Signature Series reproductions built to honor his design traditions using quality materials and proper construction. The GB23 uses orange and green colored veneers on the African Ebony spliced points — the two-color veneer outline is warmer and more vivid than the maple-only veneer versions, and the Mother of Pearl diamond inside each point gives the design its inlay centerpiece. The African Ebony butt sleeve carries 24 dots and four MOP diamonds, making it one of the most densely detailed sleeves in the Balabushka Signature Series. White with green speck Irish linen wrap. George Balabushka signature on the forearm.

• Orange and Green Veneers with MOP Diamonds in Ebony Points: The orange and green veneer outline is the most vivid color treatment in the GB series — warm and cool tones together that make each point pop against the birdseye maple.
• 24 Dots and Four MOP Diamonds on the Ebony Sleeve: The densest inlay work in the Balabushka Signature Series — 24 individual dot inlays plus four MOP diamonds make this sleeve a showcase of detailed construction.
• Birdseye Maple Forearm with George Balabushka Signature: The figuring in the birdseye base and the Balabushka authentication mark on the forearm.
• White with Green Speck Irish Linen Wrap: The green specks connect to the green veneer in the point design.
• 5-Layer Leather Tip with Juma Ferrule: 13mm layered leather for a soft, responsive feel at contact.
