This all boils down to a warranty,I had a 1267C Surf Series it broke 10" from the top, I sent it back with a letter and receipt, they called yesterday and told me that they don't make a conventional surf rods any more...
I bought this rod 12 years ago,yes 12 years.
They offered to ship me a comparable model (1325S) or a credit of $330,it was a no brainer not to take the replacement.

I was thinking about stripping the eyes off and have it re warped over the winter for conventional.

A lot of the guys I fish with love to bust my balls because that old rod was like a telephone pole,it was versatile, it was great for jigging,plugs and drifting eels...well only decent sized eels.

But most of all it gave me mojo and grew attached to it.I would like to stay with Loomis,not to mention there warranty is in matched.
This is why I started this thread, and like to hear more feed back on this model.
