also 1201m blank = XS 101 MS factory lamiglass rod
at about $310 for the factory rod, I'd look at getting a custom, it'll probably end up cheaper with better components. Check with Mike at M&D's.
if your looking at the 2 piece, I'd caution you that the 1202m (the two piece version of the 1201m) is a much different and stiffer rod than the 1201m - I only use the 2 piece for bait. The 1202L might be a good option, but I don't know much about it (that would be the XS 10 MS factory rod). Just alittle confusing, huh?
good luck.
