A 1201m set up the way Back Beach builds them and the old standard CMS build (although perhaps they have changed) is like two different rods.

Go slow buying a rod with a 40 or 50 mm collector unless you are very sure that is what you will need (i.e., you'll be using heavy mono on a big spooled reel) and only do so after you have held and cast something built for specifically for braid. The same guide system designed for mono is not the best choice when fishing braid. It may work, but you'll own a rod much tip heavier than it needs to be.
