I have a good customer who brought a rod in and asked me to match the action. He has ordered 3 so I want to avoid making the same mistake 3 times. Can anyone help? On the rod is marked:
Abu Garcia CGB70-2M 7'0" Medium Action 3/8 - 3/4 oz 8-20# line Thans again for the help I get here. Doug Re: looking for blank match

I cannot say I know that Abu Garcia rod, but this blank is a similar match:
AMERICAN TACKLE Blanks -ELITE Graphite- MAG BASS (MB ) SERIES (Mid-Night Blue) AE-MB-C-84-3 7'0" 1-pc 10-17# 1/4-3/4oz FAST MEDIUM 0.595" 5.5-64ths 2.8oz $82 Worth considering if you don't get a better match from someone who knows that particular Abu Garcia rod and has built on another blank to match it.

Doug,
If you are familiar with the CCS system and have the time CCS the A.G. blank then check the CCS data site for a blank with the same numbers and or post a request if other builders know of one that would be close. That would be about as accurate as you could get and that is very accurate! The lables on some factory rods are not as accurate as you might think so if you want to be sure use the CCS system if you can, unless you hear from an other builder you trust, with "hands on" experiance with that particular make & model. Like you said, you do not want to make 3 of the same mistakes with the same client ! Good Luck and enjoy OK? Raymond Adams Eventually, all things merge, and a river runs through it..
