Ordering Phenix X12 spinning rod

Post by dragon1 » Sat Nov 18, 2023 6:34 pm

Does anyone know the process to order one of these rods? Seems like no one even has one in stock anywhere?

TIA.

I was too in the market for that rod, I messaged Phenix about it on instagram a while back and they told me that it would be in stock in a few weeks but that was months ago now and its still been out of stock since then.

Whelp that sux...it is a truly unique spinning rod with nothing else in the market that is like it aside perhaps the St. Croix Legend Glass, however it's a 7'2" length and all glass.

BTW, would you happen to know the weight of this finished rod?

I'm a little late to this thread, but Phenix has discontinued the X series spinning rods. Your only option for an X12 spinning rod would be to custom make one, as the casting rods and blanks are still in production.

Thanks for letting me know, that really helps save a lot of time and headaches.
