{"product_id":"thomas-f-e-special-8-3-2-6wt-bamboo-rod","title":"Thomas, F.E. - Special 8' 3\/2 6wt Bamboo Rod","description":"\u003cp\u003eFor sale here is an F.E. Thomas Special 8' 3\/2 6wt bamboo rod in very good original condition. Medium toned cane with bronzed snake guides and red agate stripping guide. Windings are dark maroon. A few accent wraps at the hook keeper and mid male ferrule are damaged or missing, and the varnish has some areas of light bag burn throughout. I would characterize these issues as minor, although the next custodian may wish to shore up the existing accent wraps with a light overcoat, or rewrap them altogether. 10\/64 and 17\/64 ferrules fit perfectly, and all sections are straight \u0026amp; full length. 6\" grip is clean and lightly ridged, and the rod is fitted with a cap \u0026amp; ring reel seat over mortised spacer. The butt cap retains the maker's stamp and the base is stamped \"35\" in concentric circles. Scripted \u0026amp; actual weight is 4 1\/8oz. Action on the faster side of medium fast, the rod has fine tips and comes to life with a DT6. A very nice FET dry fly taper with a strongly swelled butt. Sold in the original bag with hangtag and brass capped tube with intact decal. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Freestone Vintage Tackle","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57966708097184,"sku":"FVT1947","price":1250.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0398\/3831\/8752\/files\/Thomas_F.E.-Special8_3-25wtBambooRod-FVT1947-1.jpg?v=1781810813","url":"https:\/\/www.freestonevintagetackle.com\/products\/thomas-f-e-special-8-3-2-6wt-bamboo-rod","provider":"Freestone Vintage Tackle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
