Hell no! A concept layout is perfect on an 8 foot rod, although a 4000 sized reel (I'm not familiar with the certate however) seems a bit small for the power of the blank.
The fuji site has a number of suggested layouts for that size rod.
It is cruel, however, to send you to the FUJI site since the complete one is all in Japanese.
One 8 foot rod they show using MN-LN-L guides goes MN 30-20, then LN 16 -10, then L (or LN) 8-8-8 to 8tip.
From the tip their spacings in centimeters are 12.5-14-15.5-19.5-21.5-25.5-28.
With their new KWAG and KLAG, KTAG guides you could likely go even smaller and start with a 20 or 25 then cone down over 2 more guides to your KTAG runners. Maybe 25-16-12-8888? You'd have to look at it once your reel seat is mounted.
They have spacings using V and Y guides as well as LC and LDB setups if you wade around enough to find them.
