Ked, I can order you whatever blank you want from GUSA, as I am now a Distributor. I will not have stock in teh Uniteds, but I will stock almost all of the GUSA SaltWater blanks, in several colors (Cobalt, Emerald, Metallic Purple, Ox Blood Red, and I will even have a few in Carnation Pink). Their new series, the Challengers are Saltwater blanks with graphite & fiberglass tips. These have been used in Australia for the past 4 years, and will catch a lot of fish here in the US as more an more builders and fisherman use them. I will stock the 4 models of 4' UniButt blanks, as well as most of the 5'6 - 7 models. Once again, I will have a variety of colors in stock, so there will be no wait on these items. I'm expecting to have my inventory by the time the High Point Show rolls around.
I know you are looking for fly blanks and some FW, I can order those as well for you. You can contact me for more information and I will get you what you need. Re: Graphite USA

Spencer - the retail prices have actually gone up a little bit over the past 2 years, after dropping about 20-25% from 2004 to 2005. Not all the retailers have updated their prices to reflect these slight increases, but they are there. Compared with 2004, they are still about 12% lower today than they were then.
Graphite NYC - now that's funny, but I refuse to put GNYC becasue I'll have to don a doctors mask and have a waiting area for husbands if I use that acronym. The one thing which people have issues with GUSA, is the wait time to get blanks, specifically colored blanks. I'm taking a shot at stocking some of the more popular blanks I deal with in colors, so people can get the blanks within a few days. If thta works out I will expand the blanks I stock to carry more of their line-up, in colors. IT's really tough to have ample stock in 10 different colors and 40 blank models, but I'm gonna do the best that I can. Re: Graphite USA
