It's the same generic stuff coming out of Asia. Nothing special but the price. Look at the testimonials, one compares his A8 to a Loomis IM6. That rod is older than dinosaur shit and I think that say's a lot. Here's some light reading on the topic, feel free to be critical.

Thanks everyone, my father-in-law was looking at these and asked me about them, I had never heard of them before so thought I would ask you all. I have told him to check out Wilsons..etc...etc.. But in typical father in law father in law fashion does not like to take advice from "the son in law" LOL

Thanks again.
