John,
If it's a casting rod it looks about 2 sizes to big on all the guides. I'd start with a spacing of 4.5, 9.5,15, 21, 28, 36, 45.5, 57" than static test it as per the library article above. I'd use a #16 high frame, 12 low frame, 10, 8, than 8 or 7s out to the tip. Just a guess as I don't know what size reel is going on it, 20 lb line is no problem.
