mtannerworley Posted September 29, 2011 Report Share Posted September 29, 2011 I've seen a couple sites that have the RC 1.5's but I was wondering if anyone has bought them from one of these sites before. I'd just like to conformation knowing that they run straight and are similar to the RC 1.5s. Also interested in the RC 1.5DDs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tree_Fish Posted September 29, 2011 Report Share Posted September 29, 2011 I've ordered blanks from ebay and bustinbassbaits, in my experience you're going to have to tune most of the blanks you get. You'll get a few that run true without doing anything to em. As for the best, the quality is about the same all over from the blanks that I have bought. Someone else might know of somewhere to buy quality blanks, I only bought blanks so I can practive painting cranks, I think you have more control over the final result if you make your own. Someone else might have some info on where to buy quality blanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobv Posted September 30, 2011 Report Share Posted September 30, 2011 I've been buying from Mike Vann, Vanndalizer.com, I've painted and sold a dozen or so. Like all blanks they need tuning but run great and catch fish! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hooklineandsinker Posted October 4, 2011 Report Share Posted October 4, 2011 I got some in from hidden valley tackle. Painted up a sexy shad and caught a fish the 5 or 6th cast. I give it an A+. Just needed a little tuning. Great action Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobv Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 (edited) Mark, you may need to PM him, he's been real busy and not using the web sites. If you can't get him PM me and I can send you his email. Bob Edited October 5, 2011 by bobv Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matthew smoot Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 this is by far and away the best place I have found unpaintedlures.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark poulson Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 this is by far and away the best place I have found unpaintedlures.com Those are nice, but cost double+- what Predator Bass and Bustin Bass charge for similar baits.

blackjack Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 That would be because they are twice as nicely built. I have ordered from them all and I will only order from unpainted lures in the future! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blazt* Posted October 7, 2011 Report Share Posted October 7, 2011 There is an ebay seller with the ID "unpaintedlures" and all of his blank auctions get high bids to the order of around $3/ pc. on lots of 10. I've been watching them for a while. People apparently know something about these. Unfortunately he has yet to offer 2.5s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaos For 2011 Posted October 7, 2011 Report Share Posted October 7, 2011 (edited) Those are nice, but cost double+- what Predator Bass and Bustin Bass charge for similar baits. I've bought from others and Unpainted Lure's 1.5s are much better. They are not the same as what the other guys have. Trust me, they're worth the little extra.
