I'm not sure about the warranty on allstar rods but I know of a fella that does super repairs. His name is Tim Tipton. He does rod and reel repair and custom rod building. He is actually one of our club sponsors. He offered about a half dozen repaired rods at the end of our season last year as prizes and the quality was A-1. Not sure what he charges but I'm sure it's reasonable. definately worth looking into. His number is 502-553-1101. Hope this helps.
