Kingfisher Chub Specialist Rod - Peregrine Build - as new condition

I bought this early summer from Rob Francis on here, only used twice since getting it. It’s a lovely action rod and perfect for touch legering, only reason I’ve decided to part with it is I’m trying to fund a bespoke Mark Tunley Chub rod.
I paired it with a Youngs river specialist pin (most likely also selling) and it balanced perfectly.
I’m using the same original words and pics Rob advertised it with…it’s still in same condition, and selling for a bit less than I purchased for £220:

a brand new Harrison blank, Kingfisher designed, Peregrine built 1lb tc Chub Specialist Rod.
Plenty of pics attached, you’ll notice it marked as 11’9” which is the true length discovered by Roger when building it.
American Tackle reel seat, Wye button butt cap, Fuji guides inc anti-frap tip, laugh ear dots and hook keeper.
Really nice action and very well balanced rod, the Wye button really helps, not top heavy at all, could hold comfortably all day.
Would prefer collection from north Bucks but as it’s a three piece should be easy to sort postage

I would but have a few already!

If you don't sell it Alan I'll be tempted, as I might sell one of my other ones for this model!

Gotta admit I’m loathe to let it go but it’s an extravagance I can forego if it helps fund a new rod
 
If it’s still available i’ll take it.
I will need it posting if thats ok.
Just send us your payapl via pm and I’ll sort payment.

Thanks

Steve.

Nice rod, IMO this is the best blank for chub.
Out of curiosity, what rod are you getting from MT?
yeah agree lovely rod…new one is still in planning but thinking 11ft Avon with two tips, one solid tip 1.25Ib and one with spliced quiver but every time I chat it over with someone the spec changes slightly! Basically I have too many chub rods and want to create one dedicated tool to cover everything except the float
