[QUOTE="Lil'Skeeter, post: 333799, member: 11412"] Hanr3, take what you will from this forum, and any other forum, with a grain of salt . Everybody has their own opinion and every forum I've been on exemplifies it. Two things I will say,the term "parabolic" is used in relation to G Loomis NRX rods, believe me, there's no fiberglass in that rod. Also guides have NO bearing on rod quality. You can easily spend more on guides than on the blank itself, especially on a spinning rod. Titanium guides w/Silicon Carbide inserts will set you back $100-$125 for a 6' - 7' rod, and that's "not" using the concept system. Research, research and research. Rod Builders magazine is probably your best source for information. [/QUOTE]
