Not sure what "braid friendly" means. They are almost new. Old guard I mean cork handles. Not cork wrap, or shrink wrap. Old fashioned cork rings. If I have a chance, I'll post a picture |

The rod has ceramic guides. It was made in the 80s not in prehistoric times.  |

Yup, that's it Kev. It actually is a really nice rod. I had forgotten about it and found it in a corner with 5 or 6 other Murat rods including an 11' E or S (brown) glass wrapped by the master himself Charlie Murat. he died in 71 so this rod is probably 45 years old. I will not sell that rod. |
