There is a thread about 2 pages back selling a 1088 and it includes a post by Big Bo with the specs on all the AllStar GSWs.

That's where I got my info. 1208 and 1088 have a 8 tip. 1085 has a 6.5. Unless I'm wrong that comes out to about what my micrometer read and that's how I came up with the blank. It never felt like a 1088. Andcertainly the tip on my 1208 is fatter than the tip on this rod.

It's back hanging from the ceiling and I am not unhappy that it's still around. Nice rod. Just duplicates another I have. Thanks for the reply.
