I just did one of these on a shakespheare gutts butt ugly stick for my nephew.I live right in town if you want to look at one done.I only do this as a hobby.These blanks will take a tremendious beating and last a long time especially with a kid using.I dont remember if I used the GBU 845or the846 would have to measure tip.Ones an 8 and the other a 9.Also did one on some off beat maylasian blank I picked up at CMS a while ago that he had for like 2 for 25 bucks.This was more of a tubular glass blank he had used for small cod rods.It actually seemed like an OK blank but dont know how it would hold up.He didnt have any specs on them and I got a couple of different ones just to wrap.
