So I plopped down my 49 bucks (I think it was that, it might have been more...I remember is was really cheap) and walked away with the rod. Which comes in a nice silky soft cloth bag as well.

What shop was this at?

My buddy bought his at this parts and service place here in Fall River i wont mention the name.. the owner said alot.. but when something happened it was a different story altogether... The hook holder broke and sliced my buddies hand.. not serious.. but it's a nice feature to have on a rod... We went back to that parts and service place and talked with the older gentleman.. he looked at us like we were stupid.. Why do you want that...?? No-one uses it anyways... You should have been there to see the freaking hack job the older gent was doing.. he ripped a hook holder off another rod that someone had busted and tried to put it on.. after 15 minutes he got it..my friend fliped it and it fell off...again he looked at us like it's not that important.. Then the owner shows up, looks and says ok we can send it out for repair will take a few weeks... .. Needless to say i wrapped it with tape.

I'm looking to buy a conventional Tsunami rod.. I dont want to blow alot of money on a custom as i am having a custom spinning rod built, An OVER_THE_COUNTER_GUARANTEE is hard to pass and your story is a seller all in its self.
