Edwards Quad 54 Bamboo Fly Rod 8’6" 3/2 #7/8

2799


An Edwards Quadrate model 54 fly rod, 8'6", 3-piece, 2-tip, and built for what feels to me like a #7 or #8. Fast DF action. The rod weighs 5 3/4 ounces on my scale. Excellent original condition for its age with a hint of bag imprint on the tips. Some varnish loss around the base of the snake guides due to the guides lifting a bit likely on a heavy fish. Medium flamed cane with brown main wraps with yellow edges. 3x3 yellow and brown signature wraps and yellow windaways on all guides. Agate stripper and dark HSS snake guides the rest of the way. The step ferrules are oxidized and squared to the rod. "Edwards Quadrate" and "#54" are lettered on the rod in white ink. The grip is 5 3/4" long turned to a western profile with a hidden pocket cap. The large black tenite is squared to the grip and the rod. The reel seat is a walnut insert with an uplocking black plastic screwlock with an aluminum nut. The rod packs into a light tan color bag and an aluminum tube with the Edwards data sticker 99% intact, and everything packs into a padded leather tube. A fine example of this Edwards model.

There are cheaper options but our experience has been that you get what you pay for and that it's not worth taking risks when shipping what are often one-of-a-kind items. Your shipping estimate will be calculated at checkout and if you have any questions please contact us. Please note the buyers are responsible for any applicable import duties or fees that may levied. Due to the importance of packing items carefully please allow up to two weeks for arrival (depending on how busy we are) though we certainly do our best to get items to you as expeditiously as possible.
Other Terms
Unless otherwise noted, all items come with a 3-day inspection period during which they can be returned to us for a full refund (provided that they are in the same condition in which they left our shop). Return shipping is the responsibility of the buyer. If an item is returned, we will issue a refund within 10 days upon receipt. Refunds will be either administered by providing a check or, when possible, by canceling a credit card purchase.
