Kaixo Inaki,
You give us very little to go on and even then one would have to know it's composition or have one of those rods in hand to do a CCS data check on it. Maybe there are others that have used those blanks and have found them to be comparable to brand a, b, or c. Is this a casting, spinning, or fly rod? By the way, where are you located?
Agur, Ellis

Inaki,
Angler's Workshop to the left is a sponsor who carries and uses Talon blanks. The perfect people to talk about this question. They are in the same town as Talon, Lamiglas and G Loomis and also carry Sage, Thomas and Thomas, St Croix, Rainshadow and Winston. If they can't help you, I don't know who can, great people to do business with.

Yes Inaki, I am euskaldun but not euskaldunak. However I do speak Castilian. If I can be of help here is my e-mail: ellisredfish@sbcglobal.net. I live in Houston, Texas and the fishing is good here. There are many rodbuilders here also.
Mil abrazos, Eliseo Mendiola
