Does Megabass or other JDM company make a microguide rod? I would like to try a high end JDM rod to go with my JDM reels but i want one with microguides.

The Orochi Double X and Destroyer X7 lines use micro-ish guides

Megabass uses the minimal guide system on the Eiger Northwall.All the benefits without flimsy construction.I am not a fan of true micros,however these strike a happy balance

The photo on the MB site(Eiger Northwall),is incorrect.They show the conventional sized guides as seen on the Griffon Phase3

I know major craft's volkey rod uses micro guides. I have their 6'5" ML BFS 2-piece rod and it has microguides for every single guide up to the tip.

Some more recent Daiwa JDM models use "reduced resistance" guide trains which are smaller, but not quite micro. The Heartland SPR rods are a good example of this.

Abu also has some rods with micros as well, in particular the Salty Stage BFS rods. I wouldn't consider this a premium rod though.

Evergreen Spin Cobra, a spinning rod, has sorta micro guides. i would say much smaller than standard but a but bigger than micro.

The Jackall Poison Glorious BFS rods use a Fuji Ti micro guide train - current models are the 6'4" Multirole, 6'8" Long Distance and 6'6" Hardbait Finesse. I've got the 6'4" which I use for wacky and small senkos - very good for 3/16th to 1/4 oz hard baits as well.

Im thinking about gettting the megabass rod I want and then having a custom rod builder to add microguides to it.
Im not sure how well that would work?

Megabass F10-76XBJ black jungle and a Megabass Destroyer X7 F5.1/2-70X7. I think x7 has some microguides.
