Gary Howells Bamboo Rod 7' 2/2 #4/5

VFT6922


For sale here is an early Gary Howells 7 foot bamboo rod for a four or five weight in very good condition, labeled 2 5/8 oz. Made in 1971. All cork reel seat, half wells grip, original bag and tube (with the early tube label signed by Gary). One tip is down 1 1/2" (at the ferrule) and the repair was done very nicely. The varnish has some chips and rubs, but nothing requiring attention (no hook digs). Ferrule fit is perfect with both tips. All silk wraps are still very solid.

Shipping Information
We ship at cost to the buyer and in the majority of cases do so via UPS with full insurance and signature. There are cheaper options but our experience has been that you get what you pay for and that it's not worth taking risks when shipping what are often one-of-a-kind items. Your shipping estimate will be calculated at checkout and if you have any questions please contact us. Please note the buyers are responsible for any applicable import duties or fees that may levied. Due to the importance of packing items carefully please allow up to two weeks for arrival (depending on how busy we are) though we certainly do our best to get items to you as expeditiously as possible.
Other Terms
Unless otherwise noted, all items come with a 3-day inspection period during which they can be returned to us for a full refund (provided that they are in the same condition in which they left our shop). Return shipping is the responsibility of the buyer. If an item is returned, we will issue a refund within 10 days upon receipt. Refunds will be either administered by providing a check or, when possible, by canceling a credit card purchase.
