Warranties aside, your thoughts on how these rods compare in performance for fishing crankbaits?

In general, I like glass for deep cranks and open water and a Mod/Fast graphite for square-bills around cover and popping traps off the grass.

I used glass rods for all of my cranking until i tried out the Veritas Winch series.  I have the 7'6" MH for Strike King Series 5, 5xd, 6xd, Norman DD22, etc.  I also have the 7' M Winch for smaller cranks like shad raps, 3XD, etc.  They both have great actions and the best part is the light weight.  They are much lighter, more well-balanced, and thinner than the glass rods I have used.  The 7' Medium has landed bass up to 5.5 pounds for me and is my favorite rod. 

 

So, in short, I would personally go with the graphite option, though many prefer glass.  I just like the sensitivity and lightweight of graphite better.

Personally I'd go with the Avid Crankbait rods. The graphite is lighter and more sensitive than the S-Glass blanks while still providing the same action. 

If its made in the USA and warranty is important to me. Plus avid has SCIII and mojo has SCII thats means avid is better quality.

Go with the avid I have both and the avid is much more sensitive especially with braid

He is referring to the Mojo Glass rod, not a ScII rod,

 

I Have the MM Avid and believe it is the best crankbait rod in this power and the action I have used, providing a lighter weight with a better tuned action built with much better components than the Mojo glass rod, and although it has nothing to do with usability, it has the Lifetime warranty. The Legend Extreme MHM is my favorite Crankbait rod when a heavier power is needed for the bigger and deeper diving crankbaits, but if I didn't have it would be using the Avid in the MHM for those application's.
