So this rod has the marbling just above the reel seat and the foregrip up at the ferrel? Hard to tell the whole layout with the small segment pictures Chris.

saltheart the marbling goes from the end of the eva foregrip to the grip below the ferrule, covers a 14" section of the blank. so in the last pic it goes from where my hand is down to the foam grip
finished weight of the rod is 13.5oz, weighed it today.

Very nice Chris, I like your grips
that rod is very lightweight, it weighs almost nothing
I just cast one of those today when Big Dave let me try his

i love the 1267. maybe my favorite century so far that i have. same power of my 1327, but the versatility closer to the 11ft s2. threw a 3/4 bucktail, fine (not optimal but it loaded alright), threw a 3 oz pencil awesome, and a big metal lip. cant wait to give it a shot in mtk this week.
