Offering a timeless classic from one of Sage’s greatest and most popular series.  This listing is for a SAGE XP 590-4, which is a 9’, 4-piece, 5 wt. rod.  The XP was introduced by Sage in 1999, sporting its Graphite IIIe technology combining power, durability, and smooth feel.  It was a hugely successful design.  This is a responsive, fast action rod with an incredibly smooth feel and precise tip recovery.  The shaft is a beautiful deep forest green with translucent dark amber wraps trimmed in gold.  The rod is appointed with a Fuji ceramic stripping guide and hard-chromed snake guides and tip top.  It also features a reverse half wells premium cork grip with an up screw-locking reel seat and gorgeous hardwood insert.  The rod shows use but remains in excellent condition.  The cork shows some wear but remains soft and smooth.  The blank and reel seat show typical minor scratches from use, but nothing at all compromising.  All guides and wraps are tight.  Included is the original labeled green bag (on which a previous owner wrote rod information) and original aluminum case.
