メガバス総帥、伊東由樹がMEGABASSの名を冠し、彼のハンドビルドによるバスロッドの製作を開始してから、およそ３０年に迫ろうとしています。そんな彼の最初の作品「ARMS」バスロッドは、やがて１９９７年「DESTROYER」を生み出し、２０１３年「X7」、２０００年及び２０１４年「EVOLUZION」を派生させたメガバスロッドのDNAとして、現在までのメガバスロッドに脈々と受け継がれています。

いわば、ARMSはF-1マシンと同じ。メガバスロッドを進化させるべく伊東のロッドテクノロジーをいちはやく具現化させるテストベットであり、近未来のメガバス・ロッドビジョンを先行投影させる、ドリームワークスです。
2015年。伊東の最先端テクノロジーを具現化するアイティオーエンジニアリングが、驚愕のフィッシングダイナミクスを内包する「スーパーウエポン」を、フィールドに送り出します。

荷重を受けるガイドセクションに高密度コンポジットしたマイクロブレイデッドグラファイトファイバーが想定ターゲットの大きさを物語る、新開発「異軸多弾性ハイブリッドグラファイトコンポジット」ブランクスは、これまでのバスロッドのスペックを凌駕。
超軽量カーボンフレームを覗かせるハニカムフレーム構造のロッキングダイヤルは、極限までのブランキング（肉抜き）が施された軽量化構造であると共に、圧倒的な強度を実現。

自由度の高いフルアングルキャストを実現させるロープロファイル・ショートトリガーに接合されたITOリールシートスペーサーは、「ウォールナット（ウッド）」・「バーズアイピーコック（ウッド）」・「4-AXISISカーボン」・「BRAIDED WOVENカーボン」・「METALコンポジットカーボン」の５種類。

ついに完全自由形状のカーボングラファイト造形を可能としたアイティオーが製作する、超高感度「ドライカーボンハンドル」のデザインは、往年のARMSエルゴノミクスを正統に継承。リール装着時に握りのクリアランスギャップを無くし、ロッド重点をハンドルユニットに寄せ、なおリール装着時の低重心化をも目指した「センターバランシングスペーサー」をはじめ、ロッドエンドの作動に自由度をもたらす非円径断面エンドバットなど・・・これまでのバスロッドの常識を圧倒的なテクノロジーで破壊する、数々のALL NEW FUNCTIONを具現化。

 

I couldn't have said it better myself ~

 

Gorgeous Stick.

Simply a work of art but I'm just not sure I'm ready to drop $990.00 on one just yet. I mean I just started buying my Orochi xx rod's. It may take some time for me to work up to this one.

 

   Life has way to many choices in it.

[Cgrinder]

I think the Evoluzion C40 is going to be my limit, if I even get there. I'm very happy with the Orochi XX rods so far.

[bass1980]

Waiting for it to hit $700ish at JP then I'll think about it. I have some X4 and X7 I bought this winter and I'm already feeling in the dog house from my spending spree.

Dude that thing is sick!

[Senko lover]

Holy cow. I really don't know what to say. That thing is stunning.

[OntarioFishingGuy]

... ... ... Ummmmmm.... Wow. Just wow.

I have the Diablo C40.  It is a thing of beauty. 

[SenkoGuru]

I just bought the Orochi EMTF and the Tour Versatile. I'm having a hard time trying to decide between the spinnerbait special and the flatside special as my next purchase though. Megabass is simply fantastic and I wish I would have bought some much sooner than I did.

[Master Bait'r]

Well then.

Niceee. I'm looking at the C40 Mephisto.

[Ozark_Basser]

The foregrip and the wraps are my favorite features. Sick.

[Oregon Native]

Oh...my

[slonezp]

So, do we buy it to hang on the wall or to actually use. Sure, it's prettier than an Ugly Stick, but it's just a fishing rod.

[Redlinerobert]

Niceee. I'm looking at the C40 Mephisto.

I have 2 of the original Mephistos with the slant bridge. At 6'9" it is my go to for peacocks in Brazil. This one at 7'2" is a little long.

I picked up the C40 Elseil over the winter. Plan on using it for swim jigs once our season opens next month...it feels sublime in hand.

[Darren.]

Perhaps after I win a lottery somewhere.

 

Dang.

Even if I could afford to fish such a nice rod, I think I'd hang it on the wall.  Almost a grand, I don't think I could fish with it incase it got scratched. But it is a nice looking rod.

That's true, end of the day it is just a fishing rod.  A really, really, really nice fishing rod.

Scratches add character.

Yea ~ To an Ugly Stick - but one of these may belong in a glass case.

 

With a Hammer & a Sign over it that reads "In case of Emergency - Break the Ugly Stick".

Aren't the high end Megabass Rods Made in Japan? It would break my heart (and tick me off) if I bought that beauty and then found out that it was made by the Chicomms!
