Build Review:

 

This was a challenging yet rewarding build.  The guide wraps and decorative butt wrap took quite a bit of attention to complete, but exceeded my expectations.  That's great, but simply not enough...most importantly, I hope they exceed the client's!

 

 

 

With this rod, the adventure ends, but another awaits my attention....
