A customer brought in what looks to be a 50 or 80 lb. IGFA , trolling rod.
It has a Harnell white front grip, but the blank is white, worked on many Harnell rods, never saw a white Harnell blank. Many years ago rod builders could purchase the Harnell front grips, and put them on custom built rods other than Harnell's. Has any of my fellow rod builders ever seen or repaired a Harnell blank other than the standard black. The Customer swears its a Harnell, is the customer always right.

Rich,
In this case I am not sure that the customer is right. Over a period of a lot of years I have seen and built a heck of a lot of Harrinton/Harnells and have never seen anything other than a gloss black one. Re: Harnell / Harrington Rods

Hi Rich - I used to work with Jean and John Harrington when they were in Oxnard, Ca. John left us several years back but Jean moved to her Daughters and continued with building rods. My last address for her was:
Jean Harrington Rural Route 2, PO Box59a Bramer, MO. 64624 Fax660 645 2559 work 660 645 2495 find out from the source. I hope she is still putting out those Beautiful Harnells and she has a US line too. Re: Harnell / Harrington Rods

Could you tell me if Harnell/Harrington went out of business? I would greatly appreciate it.
