I haven't used that particular company but I have the Custom Angling Solutions Modulus bars that look very similar.
Did consider the Decoy bars but they're very pricey, my CA bars were about £90 for the pair, comparable Decoy bars were £125.

Yeah the Decoys are very pricey. I was a about to press the trigger on a pair yesterday, but even with a 10% discount code they are still very expensive.

I like that you can move the alarms along the bar but I might be looking elsewhere I think as you can achieve the same for a lot less.

Interlok stuff is a lot cheaper, you can customise bits as you want them as well. As nice as that Decoy stuff is it's bloody expensive!

Those are beautiful, the 2 rod bars in black are a sight to behold. No wonder they have sold out on his website.

Custom Angling Solutions are another option.

I'm pretty sure he makes the Elliot Grey ones

He doesn't make them for him anymore. Reading between the lines, Elliot has sourced another manufacturer.

You realise a lot of the others mentioned are also U.K. made?

He didn't specifically say the ones mentioned here? Competitors for buzz bars include loads that import from abroad.
Not sure what point you're trying to make?

I like the bars Henry, but I do think that yours are eye wateringly expensive and there are plenty of other manufacturers with comparable products made here in the UK for less money. I was about to buy a set of yours and I still may place an order with you but I hesitated because of the cost and since it occurred to me that for that money I could buy a set of Jag bars.

Hence my original post asking the other members of this forum about the quality of your product.

I must admit though, the sock puppet that started that other post with the words your buzz bars are wicked didn't exactly fill me with confidence.

If you can do anything more on the pricing side of things then I would give yours more consideration.

The other thing of concern Henry was after I suspended my purchase the other day, I received a text message from Rupert at DA querying the reason why I didn't complete the transaction. You've now come on here with a different name again and with that idiot spamming your products earlier I'm now wondering how genuine the operation is. I'm sure my concerns are needless but feel free to DM me.

Edit. Ignore I can see you and Rupert are company directors for DA at companies house.

I've got jag black and 316 adjustable pod which is stronger and will last longer but the ally stuff is more convenient to use when sticks can be wound in to the bank.

Wasn't necessarily comparing the 2, just pointing out that Interlok works on the same principle and is a much cheaper option, I thought that was what the op was asking for

'I like that you can move the alarms along the bar but I might be looking elsewhere I think as you can achieve the same for a lot less.'

This is the reason I got the Custom Angling Solutions Modulus bars. Complete freedom to move the alarms along the bar, easy to take them off and fish singles as well if need be. They've been a game changer for me fishing a multitude of venues, save on a lot of faff!
Mine were £78 all in from Walkers of Trowell including the cap protectors to be extra tarty.

I actually spoke to them the other day, they're no longer doing the fishing side of things.
