Pictures of some Custom Builds

Pictures never truly showcase the beauty and creativity of our custom builds. Constrained by the limitations of the camera lens, due to a rods length, and the fact that we dont have a clue about photoghraphy, we can only show you bits and pieces in close detail. Nothing beats physically holding your custom build in your hand, when you'll experience the balance of the rod. Feel the load potential of the guides on the blank.

Ebony and Ash grips with Old Glory on a light blue background. This was a fathers day gift.

Having some fun with thread: Black, Cream, Gray and Silver metallic.

Just a "simple" guide. It sure looks pretty. A guy had this built for his buddy and wanted me to use as much pink as I could get away with without it looking too much like a "chicks" rod.

Bears fan wanted green and yellow colors but didn't want it to look like Green Bay Packers rod. Built for a famous designer/innovator of tools used on high performance motors.

God Bless America, a Patriotic themed rod with, in our opinion, some pretty cool grips. This was made for a Author and former 'Cosmo' model.
