I want to love them, but I just don't anymore, and especially at their cost. I think they have the intended actions nailed, everything else seems to be a toss up. My compile-x's don't have the qc issues, but the sensitivity just isn't there for me for the cost, not even close.
On my 6'3"C the epoxy on the rod guides has turned bright white... I think it's from water intrusion but I don't know, however it really stands out. I know I can mail it back... call me lazy but I just haven't yet.
On my 6'7" the tip top guide glue let out and it went flying off down the line. Line didn't break so I recovered it, and I just glued it back on, however... come on.
I don't remember if it was the 7'C or not, they are put away on the rod racks in the basement right now, but one of the guide inserts popped out. I popped it back in, but I know it's just going to pop back out again.
I want to love them... shoot, thats why I own so many of them... I just don't think the cost is warranted for them though, I really think there is much more sensitive and higher quality rods out there.
