Does anyone know who make blanks for Quantum. I have a customer wanting a rod the same as the Quantum tour edition. I know what guides to use just need help with the blank.
Thanks Re: quantum tour edition

More than likely you would never be able to get the blank used for them. For most of the finished rods out there, you are not going to be able to buy those blanks used for that line of rods, they are made just for that company. Re: quantum tour edition

Do some research and find a blank to meet the specs and it will probably be better.Problem is the cust has a mind set.Try to educate him.Worst comes to0 worst buy the rod and rewap it(just kidding). Freddwhy (Rapt-Ryte) Re: quantum tour edition

When they first came out with the Tour Edition rods they were US made in OK I heard and Lamiglas made the blanks. Lamiglas also made some very good IM700 rods for the Bulldog Jig Co. that year, this was back in the early 90's, like 1994 or so. Re: quantum tour edition

Why don't you borrow the rod he wants duplicated and fully test it ... CCS with URRS. Measure, smell, taste and when you are all done - make one that duplicates the action, power, length, etc. yet make it more personalized - it will work. Re: quantum tour edition

Ricky,
take a look at the IM700 series of spinning and casting blanks. You will likely find a blank that is very close. Todd Regards, Todd Vivian Mud Hole Custom Tackle todd@mudhole.com Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
