I have one for sale, but it needs some serious TLC. Re-whip, but of a set etc.

I'll get some pics to you asap. the blank itself is pretty good tbh, but it has a bit of a leeward set (probably from being lent up on a cupboard) and needs new rings and total 're-whip. Open to offers once you've seen it.

Obviously the other gentlemen are before me but should they wish not to partake in the offer then one would possibly be interested
Chance is always powerful. Let your hook be always cast; in the pool where you least expect it, there will be a fish

pleasure. Its a 500 by the way. Half thinking about doing it up myself but having the time is always a problem!. It'll be good when it's done, but it needs doing if you see what i mean!Paul D wrote:How kind SirSt.John wrote:I'll get some pics to you asap. the blank itself is pretty good tbh, but it has a bit of a leeward set (probably from being lent up on a cupboard) and needs new rings and total 're-whip.
