plus shimano will ship it back to you probably at their cost too...i brought in 2 old corvalus at the beginning of this summer and a TLD 20/40 to get cleaned up and i picked up the TLD and they said they were just going to ship me 2 of the updated Corvalus models at no additional costs. 2 weeks later got 2 brand new reels in the mail for the 25 dollar cleaning fee. They do you good over there.

Well, I ended up just dropping the rod off at Shimano since I was near their office in Irvine today anyways. No problems at all. CS said it may have had gotten a nick in shipping or perhaps a flawed blank. Regardless they did an exchange with no issues. They couldn't replace it on hand, they said they have to ship it to me. CS Said it will be at my door in 2-3 days. So far, so good!

Thanks Guys!

Dan

Shinano USA in Irvine will take care of you. While you're there drop off your Shimano reels for service and be sure to pickup the 2012 master catalog. It's awesome having Shimano and Daiwa so accessible for us.

It's hard for me not to go with Shimano since I work in Irvine and live in Mission Viejo and drive down Muirlands every day and I can see their building when I drive by.
