Components And Built
Abu Garcia uses a 24 ton graphite blank as it is the most suitable blank for fishing in our region (Asia); balancing fishing styles, types of fishes that the rod may be used for, and price range. The 24 ton graphite blank used for the Abu Garcia Gambit 2 rods are well built and provides good amounts of power, recoil, as well as lightness.
Just so you know, not all 24 ton graphite blanks are the same. The base material maybe 24 ton graphite (sheet), but the building of the blank differs factory to factory, brand to brand, and cost to cost. The Gambit 2 rod’s blank are built tight and well.
The Gambit 2 comes with high quality Fuji guides that comes with the Fuji’s O-Ring ceramic inserts that are tough (can easily handle the abrasive characteristics of super lines), and dissipates heat from the friction between fast moving lines and the ceramic inserts. These guides also helps with weight reduction, allowing the Gambit 2 to feel light.
