Two tips same length, one winding teared with snake foot exposed, one ferrule winding non original, sanded cork to disguise ridging, tight ferrule fit with
suspicious female ferrules marks, no hang tag, un-marked payne tube, 1 small hook dig, a few varnish marks.
What is its value, in your very learned opinion, gentlemen? Thank you and Happy New Year! |

It looks broken.
Fortunately, I know a good recycler...pm me. |

What reel seat is on it, handle shape (and how much was the cork taken down to hide the ridging), and overall condition? Any sets? You're not giving us a
lot to go on other than close ups of the flaws. Some macro photos would help.

That looks nice. Almost like a graphite.

No, just looking for a fair market value estimation, and the one's I got seem fair enough.
Thank you for your highly valued inputs, gentlemen. |

Somewhere between Horseshoe and Nympher, I'd say. It needs at the least a total redo with new cork, plus you'd need to find an original Payne tube
(almost impossible) and perhaps a bag. At that point, using a really good restoration expert, you'd end up with around 2300-2500 in a restored Payne, with
a replacement bag & tube. Kind of a wash cashwise, IMO, but you'd have a very nice rod to fish.

The best part is the great casting rod you now have. . .
