New rings for my Warbird Beachcaster

[Northumbrian]

I have found an Fladen Warbird beachcaster, rung for multiplier. The blank is in good nick, but several rings on the top half, including the tip ring have cracked linings. I was considering having all 8 rings on the rod replaced with higher quality ones. If I took it to a local tackle shop eg. McDermotts, how much do you think it would cost me? Cheers. Any rod builders on here want to do me a deal? Cheers.

Not sure how much it would cost but if it was me I would put the money you have for the rebuild towards buying a new rod

I'd reckon around £40-£50 for decent rings

 

[rod-the-cod]

the going rate for a rewip with new fuji rings is in the region of 50 to 70 pound

If I'm looking at £50 I dont think I'll bother, the rod cost less than that How much to buy the rings for me to whip on myself?

Just as a guide look at the link below but it would probably be advisible to take it to your local tackle shop,who could possibly sort you out for the same price and you can see what you are buying
