Looking for skeleton seat

Hey guys, I have a customer that wants a handle and seat put on just like the G-Loomis mossyback series of spinning rods. Does anyone know where I could get that special skeleton seat that they use. I tried making everything with a regular skeleton seat but it didnt turn out the way I wanted. I wonder if its just me or the flat loomis seat makes the difference. Any help or thoughts would be appreciated.

Mud hole has some that would fit the bill. I think to make the GLoomis syle all you would have to do is turn the insert around.

They do carry just the seats, they're located in the reel seat section, not with the handle kits.

Hopefully Loomis will now go back to using the whole stinger seat, they ran out of the threaded section some time ago and been using Fuji threads which aren't near black enough to match.
