Hi guys, it's been a long time since I posted any work... Hope you enjoy it !

Fantastic Japanese glass by Tomo Ijuin. It has a powerful and fast parabolic action compared to the Yomogi series (Green).
Its deep loading and makes for a powerful cast.
I wanted to give the rod an elegant look with a lot of detail, as requested by a very exacting customer.
The grip is a slim-fit, combined with a magnificent spacer in a select stabilised burl (exibition grade).
The smooth down lock slide band hardware is made of ergal with a POM inlay, made entirely in my workshop.
I also added 'Morgan Style' ferrule rings, also made in my workshop in ergal for safety and a superior aesthetic effect.
I realised the corresponding ferrule plugs also in egal to complete the overall.
A beautiful red/orange agate by 'Perfect' and guides of 'SB' Uni, wrapped with brown/orange Japanese silk, complete the assembly.


Many Thanks for Watching !
Paolo

Outstanding work Paolo! The rod itself is exhibition grade, not only the spacer wood!
