A nice medium fast action. Medium dark wheat straw oven tempered cane with slightly darker nodes in a 3 up pattern. One set of nodes is within 3" of one another on the butt section. The wraps are a very light tan, almost transparent in color with light brown edges (there is some very minor cosmetic
