I don't no if I'm being stupid but does this take any butt grips? Hear me out basically I bought one of these last week for my kid to use from total fishing tackle, I bought some esp butt grips the two end screw threads for them to go in worked fine, the middle one refuses to let anything be screwed into it.
I contacted total fishing tackle they sent me out a replacement set of buzz bars (adjustable ones) now they are doing exactly the same Ÿ¤·€™‚¸ front and back won't let me screw anything into the middle thread but either end works fine. I'm getting annoyed with this surely either I'm just really unlucky or there is a problem at solar

are the threads ok? i bought an a1 pod when they were £95 at AD probably worst £95 i've spent on fishing tackle, fell to bits, had to epoxy heads back on etc ended up throwing it in the end

That's the problem I thing the threads are gone, I think I'll be sending it back for a refund

Can't comment on the heads on mine as they've worked ok. But I can't believe how shoddy this pod is. Everything has become either too loose or too tight. I really expected more based off of previous purchases from Solar
I seem to remember I had to take mine to bits and work the thread a bit on 1 butt grip. The legs were always way too stiff and 3 of the banksticks locked up so tight I destroyed them with pipe grips trying to get them loose..
I've got the Lidsters/Summit pod now and it's much better.

A cheap tap and die set to re-align the threads when they start going, might be worth a try, should work. I know you shouldn't have to.
I've just sent mine back, when it turned up the buzz bars ends were not attached to the bar, they just fell off.
I got it on a may bank holiday deal, glad I didn't pay full price for it, well cheap quality. Not like a solar product at all

I've returned mine now anyway but thanks for the replies, I no it wasn't expensive but kinda expected a little more than that. Just need a half decent cheaper pod for my daughter now that's all. Ive got a century stealth and a jag super compact mk2 but dont really want her using them just in case lol
