1201M is nice

The 1201M is a great rod and has worked fine for me with 2 oz. pencils and spooks. I might prefer something a little lighter for pencils that size but it's well worth the small sacrifice when you get into a decent fish. You can wear a bass out pretty quickly with that stick.

You could probably get a 1201L and 1201M custom with a basic wrap @ M&D's for not that much more than you would pay 1 Arra most places.
