Is there a US version of the Daiwa Ginei AIR Short Limited?
We could not find the Ginei AIR Short Limited 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 shortest packed length is 143 cm (56.3 in) (MT 80).
- Weights run from 188 g (6.6 oz) on the T 80 to 250 g (8.8 oz) on the MT H87M.
- 99% carbon.
- Japan list price ¥153,000–¥180,000, which is in the top quarter (by Japan list price) of the 1440 rod series we list.
- Rated by Daiwa for sinkers #0–#9 (0–33.75 g).
- Very long rods for the Japanese sweetfish. Almost unknown outside Japan.
- 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.
How the sizes differ
- The 9 sizes run from 7.7 m to 8.7 m, weigh 188–250 g, take up to 4–9 go sinkers and list at ¥153,000–¥180,000 in Japan.
