Quantum Ed Hillary Travel Rod & Reel (HS1/HS504): Value & Specs
Question
I can't find any information on a Quantum Ed Hillary travel rod and reel. The reel model say's HS 1. The rod handle has HS 504 Sul. It recommends 2-4 lb test and 1/64 - 1/8 oz lure. Do you know anything about this travel combo and what it might be worth?
Answer
Hi George,
I can't find much either. It is an ultra-light rig and as a travel set should have some appeal in the market. Strictly a guess, but I would say the value is in the range of $15-$40 depending on condition.
I did find a little bit of data on the reel and it is not a high end reel. I am assuming the set was not a high priced set when new.
Thanks, Joe
