I am sure it's the best of the best.  I looked around and you can get them for a better deal from Japan for $614.00 digitaka.com.  No way I'd spend $1,300 on a rod, I could swing it but I'd be embarrassed to have one amongst my fishing buddies.  I don't want to be "that guy".

Oh of course I’d buy it from Japan. No way I’d pay $1300 for a fishing rod! Being the cost is only around $100 more than a steez AGS and similarly priced to the NRX+ (when bought from Japan) I’m really curious how this rod stacks up against the best of the best. 

@FishTank I’m asking this a bit late, but would you mind posting pictures of your rod? I’d like to see what it looks like. 
 

Anyone else that has one, I’d love if you could post some pictures too! 
 

Thanks!

Here you go. I took it out and broke it in. I caught 11 (2 small keepers). It's an amazing rod. I will do a full review when I get more time with it.

Sweet! Can’t wait to hear more! So is it all black from the reel seat up or does it have any kind of wrap?

It almost August and I am liking my 6'8 mh spinning. I am thinking of grabbing a casting model. How are the casting models so far for those who have one.

Mixed feelings on tubular tip models (610M and 611MH), no complaints on solid tip models (71MH and 73H) I really like the 73H, more versatile, cast great, hooksets feel awesome if you like crossing eyes
