Which Bellezza model do you use? UL model seems the way to go for me, but not quite sure .
Looks i'll have to use a proxy service to acquire the rod from Rakuten. Probably going to be a little more expensive, but it looks like it's worth it.
I have the Super Bellezza GSBS-642UL model. The blank technology is remarkable and feedback outstanding. I am trying to find the best method of buying more Olympic Graphiteleader rods, but it is not easy right now.

Bellezza drool! How would you describe the Bellezza? Action, power etc. Thanks!
The Bellezza is just an absolutely delightful rod.
Thanks so much for the detailed feedback! Pushing me over the edge pretty much...

Olympic Graphiteleader Super Bellezza 642UL is on it's way from Japan. Unfortunately winter hit pretty hard here in Norway, so I might not be able to test it for a couple of months.
