Scott rods was loosing thousands and thousands of dollars a year, suddenly matching tips, putting on a set of upper guides, wrapping and finishing and shipping them out.
Well,to make a long story, longer.................. if you NOW "break" the tip on your Scott rod, it's still only $25.00 to get a new tip. But, when you get YOUR OLD TIP back..............it's been sawed into two more, pieces, by Scott themselves and when your new tip arrives, it's exactly that............ a graphite BLANK tip, no guides, no windings, just the bare tip.
As mentioned............ "a few, ruined it for many".
