yes he has a long wait at times as he has a lot of custom orders to make other times they can be there very fast, he will make any rod that you ask him if it's not what you wanted then that's down to the specifications the person give him. But un like any other manufacturer out there he still gives a warranty with custom built blanks, do century? No do afaw? No do grays? No the list goes on.

I thought your t1000 was the best thing since sliced bread phil lol. Nice rods zzippys but not the be all and end all.

 

[Davey-m]

Kompressor s with k guides 13ft 10ins decent tip action zone for the initial hook up, decent power in the mid section and nice amount of give in the butt which you need for everyday fishing.

well i fished with the standard m4 this morn f/spool in low position wth braid running line and braid leader rod is rung wth black alconites standard spacings and standard ring sizes.

i put various leads on from 150grm to 200 grm wth bait and got to say best set up i have used wth f/spool and braid.

this was pendulum casting with no problems feel thro the rod was good and leads and bait were flying in a cross wind.

No I am telling the truth sometimes you wait sometimes you don't, and your claim for the worst customer service in Britain I pathetic, I am simply stating that zziplex rods come with a real warrenty not one that has a load of clauses.

 

[mardenq]

getting back on track here--anyone used the Century Kompressor S with fixed spool and braid for heavy ground.not mono so don't need to know if its not stiff enough with mono.dont want a ss as to stiff for me.
at 13ft 10 this is the size im looking for.one lad on here has recommended the komp s for this style of fishing.
anyone used one with braid can let me know what they think of it
cheers

 

[NICKY]

Just for the record Pig Hunter, i have dealt with Terry for over 26 years now.
Many moons ago back in the docwra days i used to build Terry's rods which were to go to the magazines for review, back then i would agree with you however these days its just not the case.
I could give you more reasons but would bore you and it would mean hijacking this thread and that was and is not my intention.

regarding kompressor s would be very good wth braid and f spool imo but some not me would say the rod is too soft for heavy ground but i would disagree.
