I bought the rod for short pack trips into the sierra's (my two piece sage rods are to bulky at times)I thought I'd try the 4 piece thing out.Well got to say i was impressed with the construction,Good cork,nice reel seat w/nickle hardware,10 guides with 1 stripper(realy 2 strippers dont count the second)and it cast's real well,action on the rod was very good. very happy and supprised.[$]

Great rod for the money
By MarcusVerified Reviewer from North Carolina on 05/07/2009
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Comments:
I have an older two piece, two tip Powell rod that cost over $400 twenty years ago. This new SSL rod casts just as nicely, finish and fittings of similar quality, has the packing advantages of a 4 piece and is less than 1/4 of the price of my old rod. How can you beat that?
