I actually sent the email upon inspecting it today so nothing before Monday. I'm sure my rep will take care of me as he has been, she's been great so far service wise despite the incidents which have been out of her control.

Revo Sx 7:1.1 Need Advice On New Rod ?
whats the budget veritas would be my 1st choice for 70(ship to store)...cons,,,,none in store, you can bring your reel to dicks/bps/etc and see how it looks feels....cover the reel's feet with tape because it may scratch from the nut on the reel seat vendetta will match well and feel balanced...its supposed to be factory balanced to the revo....I have a gen 2 revo and gen 2 vendetta but I put it onto the veritas instead even tho it looked sexy Shock is the least expensive, may be a bit heavier than the other choices but you can bring your reel into the store and see how it looks and feels..Id rather this than the vengeance Sellus is pretty decent, didnt know they had them at walmart. I had a crank bait rod once upon a time

Got A Replacement Veritas From Abu But...
Had a rod that was 6ft9 microguide and the tip insert came out and the 2nd guide broke from the bottom(I think the rod was used/returned but it was a gift). They warrantied it and I asked for a 7ft11 rod instead. They shipped it and it came broken from UPS......they sent another 7ft 11to replace the broken one from UPS and all of the guides are cockeyed and twisted.

Got A Replacement Veritas From Abu But...
Ill see what happens on monday...If I was around last week Id probably have another coming by Tueday but I was able to inspect the rod today. My mother was able to tell me it wasnt broken when accepting the rod for me but once I took it out of the bag I noticed every guide was screwey. It looked like a spiral wrapped rod. It came in a tube this time.

Differences In Carrot Stix Wild's
The black one is supposed to be more durable based on the blank being non sanded. They feel lighter IMO the hook keeper locations are horrible on both and they are sharp which makes it worse You def want an extended over the counter warranty with these because the customer service e21 provides is horrendous. Paying extra 10-20 will save you having to pay 40 and wait on canadian shipping if a problem arises. I had 2 mishaps with the PG version,(quality issues), luckily they were both covered by gander at the time I love the rods tho otherwise. edit wild black The new E21 Wild Black Carrot Stix Casting Rods feature incredibly lightweight and sensitive 30-ton graphite blanks. The blanks are also non-sanded for increased strength, and all the graphics were moved down to the split grip handle for increased sensitivity and balance. The fewer labels and graphics at the front of the rods takes the practice of proper weight placement to the extreme and further enhances sensitivity. 8% lighter than the original Wild Carrot Stix, they also feature premium Fuji Micro Guides for a 10% increase in casting distance and enhanced accuracy. Featuring comfortable, premium cork split grips and no fore grips, Pac Bay exposed blank reel seats also have all but the essential material removed. Available for a great price, its hard to miss with the E21 Wild Black Carrot Stix Casting Rods. Backed by a Limited Lifetime Warranty wild errrrnge Introducing the E21 Carrot Stix Wild Casting Series Rods. Each rod features Element 21’s advanced Nano Carrot Fiber and Nano Silica blank construction. E21 even increased the nano bio fibers in each blank, resulting in even heightened sensitivity and increased flex strength. High quality Pac Bay Semi-Micro Guides with Zirconium inserts provide the increased casting distance and better load distribution associated with micro guides, and they are still large enough to allow knots and debris to pass through with minimal resistance. Proprietary E21 Reel Seats also deliver direct access to the blank for increased sensitivity, and all but the essential material has been removed to help reduce weight even further. Offering the advanced performance and sensitivity you expect from E21 - at a value-conscious price - the E21 Carrot Stix Wild Casting Rods.
