Would this be a fun rig to use? Or just a waste of money?
Older, but never used, BassPro Tourney Special combo popped up for $50 on Marketplace. Never used a non-compact conventional reel before. Just a 6’6 Med. Fast

Maybe it’s the sentimental part of me talking, but one of my favorite rods I own is the Shimano Bantam factory combo my dad gave me as my first baitcaster. It is a low profile, but it’s probably late 80s to early 90s. It’s not the traditional shape we have now.
I have plenty that are worth WAY more money, but that reel got me addicted to some big money fishing purchases at the ripe age of 14. I still break it out every now and then for pond adventures.
