All rods carry a lifetime warranty against defects in quality or workmanship. Warranty is for the original owner only. If there is any issue with the build and/or new blank quality please contact us immediately and we will review submitted photos and description of the problem to let you know if it is covered under the warranty. Normal wear and tear or abuse is not covered under the warranty. In the event of an accidental breakage such as a tip caught in the car door or a rod break due to a fall etc., we will repair the rod for the cost of labor and materials. In short, if it's our fault we will repair/replace the rod or damaged part. If the issue is as a result of the user, we ask you to cover the costs of getting the rod back on the water.
