thanks. i am definitely in love. :big grin: i'm not 100% sure what you mean by wrapped but, if i'm understanding it right ............. these are micro guides spiral wrapped to the left. the guides are wrapped only on the "low" end of each guide ... the side that is on the rod seat.

if you want, i can send you the higher rez photos or shoot a couple more. just give me your email address.

thanks again. i can't wait to stick some fish on these rods!!!! :big grin: :big grin: :big grin: :big grin: :big grin:

Wish they had shorter blanks than 6'8... Those k2s look top of the line.
