The New Loomis E6X

[Smallieguy87]

I just recently stumbled upon this new rod series that's supposed to launch by the 20th of this month. The starting retail is around $179-189 so they undercut the current GL2 rods. I've found a few pictures of the handle and butt section of the blank displaying the logo on the loomis webpage. I'm curious as to what this will do to the GL2 line up as far as price and materials go. I liked the looks and reel seat of the GL2 but felt that it's over priced at $200 especially when you have Avids at $190 and Crucials around $150. Anyway i just wanted to know what's everyone's take on this series and the impact it might have on the rest of the lineup. I'm thinking on pre ordering it and giving it run.
