Century C2 SP Command & Control Carp Rod |12ft 3.6lb Custom Build Abbreviated Alps Reel Seat

The Century C2 SP Command & Control Carp Rod – 12ft 3.6lb Custom Build Abbreviated Alps Reel Seat is a purpose-built distance tool designed for anglers who demand extra power, refined control and premium custom aesthetics.

The C2 SP series blends modern C2 blank technology with the fast taper, high-compression characteristics that made the original SP rods so respected among serious carp anglers. Designed for larger venues and demanding situations, this model delivers the authority required to reach fish beyond the range of standard tackle — without compromising fish-playing finesse.

12ft 3.6lb – Power with Control

The 12ft 3.6lb C2 SP is ideal for anglers seeking:

• Increased casting range on large waters

• Performance in strong headwinds

• Capability with heavier leads and larger PVA bags

• A powerful blank that still retains tip sensitivity

The fast taper action ensures a forgiving tip to minimise hook pulls, while the reinforced butt section engages progressively under load. When compressed correctly, the rod releases energy smoothly and efficiently for impressive distance and tight accuracy.

Advanced Carbon Construction

The C2 SP blank utilises higher grade carbon materials to produce a slightly reduced diameter butt section while increasing overall power reserves. This results in a rod that feels crisp, balanced and highly responsive in the hand.

Key blank technologies include:

• High Performance Resin system for reduced weight and increased toughness

• 1k-1k carbon outer weave from butt to tip

• Autoclave Technology for long-term action retention

• Custom PTFE/Silicone low scratch matt finish

• Black screen printed C2 logos

The combination of advanced resin systems and autoclave curing ensures durability, consistency and long-lasting performance season after season.

Custom Build – Abbreviated Handle & Alps Reel Seat

This custom specification enhances both aesthetics and performance with:

• Abbreviated shrink handle for improved balance and reduced overall weight

• Premium Alps reel seat for modern styling and secure reel fit

• Matt black metal hoods and lock rings

• Lightweight guide configuration (Minima Black 4 TiCH guides)

• Designed and manufactured in the United Kingdom
