1) Do used AJ Thramer rods trade at prices less than the new price?

2) If yes, how difficult it is to find a used AJ Thramer for sale?

Thanks.

p.s. I hate this forum.

It is amazing what a master can produce for so little.

Why he does it is beyond me.

Ps: if you order one, think about adding a bit for tipping.

The guy wrote his name on the rod, no problem (middle intitial too). He included some ID marks of his own. (I think it was 62407 # 106M). Thats fine. Nothing I havent seen before.

But what is the practical reason for making one with an agate tip top and the other with a steel tip top? I have a couple of 20s-era rods made that way, and I see them advertised with those features in catalogs from the era.

One of these void-fillers is a Midge rod. I'm thinking the Paul Young Midge 6'3" taper is the ticket.
As to that thought, I'm asking all of the wizened or un-wizened bamboo afficianados as to their thoughts on this particular Young rod.

I just purchased my first bamboo rod and am looking for a line for it. I keep hearing that double taper lines are best for bamboo but am curious if any of you are familiar with this rod and what you might recommend. I'm pretty sure that the rod was made in the 60's.

Thanks in advance,

Kevin

I have been presented with an opportunity to purchase a MINT '38 Granger (not W&M) Favorite 8'6", 3/2 with original rod sock and tube. Green wraps/tipped with gold, intermediate wraps, with a "trout" tip and "heavy tip." Pics are pending for me to review.

Questions:

1) What would be a fair price to offer?
2) Did these rods come with 2 different style tips?

Thanks!
