R n S,
I just recently broke and out of production Lamiglas rod. My fault also, but gave them a call to see what could be done. They said send it down and we'll see if we can help, so I sent the whole rod down. Got a phone call from them and they said they had a tip section, but it had to be clear coated then wrapped, so it might be a week to 10 days. I said great!!!, after all it is salmon season and I had another one just like it to fish Grays Harbor this past weekend. So no worries, they said we'll get it out ASAP when its done. I've been pretty happy with their service, and communications, as they are pretty receptive to honesty on our part, as not all rods are broken on a fish of a lifetime!!! Plus, as avid fishermen we have at least 2 of everything right!!! So patience, on our part helps!!! But I'm sure there are cases that a rod series will finally become extinct, but it'll give us an excuse to buy a new one!!!
