[QUOTE="lunkerslayer, post: 287966, member: 217"] You can have a high end blank and still hve poor action and sensitivity unless the rod has been tuned from the factory. Tuned means that the rod has been built to the exact specifications as what the rod was intended for. All those guides should be of a higher quality and built on the spine of the rod. You can get a nice 150 dollar rod with a high modulloss blank ( anything over 8000), good Fuji ceramic guides, and built on the spine of the rod.
