Guides for Musky Masters Custom Rod

Folks:
I recently replaced a guide on a customer's St. Clair Musky Masters 7' Casting rod. I was unable to match the guide exactly but used a Pac Bay replacement. Does anyone know what brand/sku# guides were originally used on this rod? The rod is a blue blank with Gudebrod Blue/gold trimar thread. The guides are gold with a 'triangular' frame (as opposed to a 'rounded' frame) and black ring. The originals were about twice as heavy as the Pac Bay replacement I used. Sorry, almost forgot these are double foot guides.
Thanks:
Den

Sonnds like those rods were made by a small localized manufacturer making rods specific to the area. Compare the guides to the guides manufactured by the board sponsors. Batson, American Tackle, CUI, Fuji, Sevier all have onloine catalogs that could be used to compare the guides to your repair job.
