Conspiracy Theroy #1
Please examine exhibit 1a:http://schoncues.com/html/garments.html
Schonware model Joe Shmoe :D proudly demonstrating how good anyone would look sporting a beautiful black baseball cap and polo shirt with the highly recognizable Schon logo. Stunning! *bling!* But wait Mr. photographer person man, give him a cue to hold so it looks legit! Hold on old chap, is that a Schon cue? Common sense would yell " Of course you idiot!, why wouldn't it be?" In my defense it's just that it looks an awfully lot like the 2000 series PS6 by our good friends at Pechauer Cues. Don't it?
Please examine evidence exhibit 1b:http://www.pechauer.com/2000cues.jpg
Anyone who is somewhat familiar with the cue world would first look for tell tale signs. One being if you can see if there is the Schon logo scrawled across the bottom of the shaft. Shucks, our good friend :D conveniently has one of his paws in the the way. Devils Advocate :twisted: : His other paw could be covering up a decorative ring, which the Pechauer doesn't have, nullifying this entire theory. Jerry Pechauer signs his cues, but only an ant with a spectrographic electron microscope could find it on an Ebony cue like this one! Rick Said so!

Any suggestions?
Theories:
1. It's just a coincidence. I don't know what every Schon looks like (production or custom) and it's highly possible that this particular Schon just happens to be the same design as the PS06.
2. (More whacky) Model boy :D is a disgrunteld employee :twisted: who wants to get back at his employer by slipping in this cue.
2a. This is a devoted employee :wink: with a terrible sense of humor.
3. This is not the actual picture taken. In the age of Photoshop someone could create a photo of the Pope who's like a hundred and two years old doing the shoulder roll somewhere in downtown Baghdad.
4. Other! (Please specify in reply.)
(Disclaimer)
This post is just for fun. Both companies produce great looking cues. I favor none for I own none. I hope this does not cause an emergency meeting of the cue world's equivalent of the U.N. Security council. Maybe someone out there knows the actual truth. By all means educate me! I just thought the likeness was kinda uncanny is all.
Or is it? :wink:
