STUDIO MINEGISHI Chrono Takt CT5112SL-K #36618

Origin of the Name "ChronoTakt"

The name ChronoTakt is a coined term combining the Greek god of time “Cronus” and “Takt,” the baton used by musical conductors. It symbolizes the concept of anglers conducting the "music of time" like a maestro—mastering each moment and savoring those extraordinary instants through this rod.

Key Features:

1. Original Reel Seat
An in-house designed reel seat made from zebrawood, which balances lightness and hardness. The shaped wooden section fits seamlessly with the reel foot, offering excellent ergonomics. The grip diameter has been adjusted to a comfortable 24 mm for enhanced handling.

2. Carbon Material
The ChronoTakt series features carefully selected carbon materials. Using low-resin, high-modulus carbon reinforced with four-axis carbon fabric, these blanks are ultra-lightweight while offering outstanding strength and sensitivity.

3. Torzite AT Guides
Equipped with T-ATTG Torzite guides with a size 20 butt guide configuration, providing both weight reduction and improved line protection.

4. Spigot Ferrule Joint
All models in the ChronoTakt series adopt a spigot ferrule (inro-tsugi) joint, achieving a smooth, powerful blank with a beautifully continuous bend curve.

5. Butt End Design
The butt end features an ABS end cap adorned with the brand logo, offering both aesthetic appeal and protective functionality.

6. Redesigned Aluminum Components – Model: 6202UL
Aluminum parts, originally used for structural protection, have been redesigned for the 6202UL model. This redesign not only enhances functionality and aesthetics but also contributes to weight reduction.

7. Carbon Reel Hood – Model: 6202UL
The reel hood’s outer shell, previously made of resin, has been upgraded to carbon for further weight savings and improved rigidity.
