Cumara vs. Crucial

[jazzwannabe]

What are the big differences between these two lines? Is the price difference indicative of the weight/performance? I have only picked up one Crucial, but haven't seen any Cumaras in my area.

The weight of the Cumara rods are much lighter than Crucial. They are also more sensitive blanks because of the higher modulus graphite used. Where are you located?

Hi Bantam,
I'm in Bakersfield, and I called around and actually found a couple of Cumaras nearby. Man, they are really nice. I have a bunch of questions about them — would you mind if I bother you about it?

Ask away. I helped design the rods so I will answer as best as I possibly can.
