Certainly not as good looking a rod. The "old" extremes are beautiful--that iridescent copper/green. The write up mentions new guides--nothing else.

Women want the pretty stuff. Does it snap like the old ones? I went through 3 745's and gave up on that series. Champs are a lot better IMO.

Hope the "new guides" are different than the "new guides" on the new Fury series that I have been hearing so many horror stories about.
