Is there a US version of the Daiwa BG Kabuse Metaltune?

We could not find the BG Kabuse Metaltune by name in Daiwa’s 2026-27 US catalog (printed, July 2026), so the sizes and specs on this page are the Japan-market ones. Sellers who ship from Japan are the usual source for this exact model in the US; a US dealer may still carry a related model under a different name.

About this item

What the maker's numbers say about this model:

  • The BG Kabuse Metaltune S-240: 2.40 m (7'10") long, 2 pieces, 128 cm (50.4 in) folded, weighs 150 g (5.3 oz), sinker rating #0–8 (0–30 g, 0.00–1.1 oz) (maker's figures).
  • 3 models from 2.00 m (6'7") to 2.40 m (7'10"), all 2-piece.
  • The shortest packed length is 106 cm (41.7 in) (MH-200).
  • Weights run from 140 g (4.9 oz) on the MH-200 to 155 g (5.5 oz) on the MH-240.
  • Carbon content 53–56% depending on the model.
  • Japan list price ¥50,000–¥52,000, which is in the upper-middle of the price range of the 1440 rod series we list.
  • Rated by Daiwa for sinkers #0–#12 (0–45 g).
  • Fishing from a raft or a stocked sea pond — mostly a Japanese pastime.
  • Sizes marked go (号) are the Japanese standard. For sinkers one go is exactly 3.75 g, so we convert it; for line it is a diameter class rather than a breaking strain, so we print the maker's number as published.
  • Specs are Daiwa's published figures; conversions to imperial are ours.
