I am going to be building two rods for a customer that is going to put the Curado E7 on them. I know they reel is Green silver and gold, so I am planning to use those colors, just looking for some suggestions on a good match for the green.
Thanks Scott Sheets www.smsrods.com Re: Thread Color for Curado E7

That's a metal flake green in the sun. I'd go with a dark green. The gude metallic green is way too bright IMHO.
One thought might be to incorporate the silver and gold, then use a complimentary color with just a small bit of green accent to pull the rod and reel together. You may have to look at maderia if you are wanting a super close match. ----------------- AD Re: Thread Color for Curado E7

You may also want to try the gudebrod ht metallic # 9656. I think it may be a good match (dark metallic green) Re: Thread Color for Curado E7

Scott, I'd go with the M&M's favorite colors. Black Nylon with maybe a touch of Black NCP. :-)

Nothing wrong with black wraps, it's classic, simple and finishes out pretty decent. Re: Thread Color for Curado E7

Green classic twist no trim, admire it breifly, then rip it off and use black and say to yourself..I tried to make it different. Re: Thread Color for Curado E7

I just did one with gudebrod green classic twist. Over a black blank with no CP it came out nice. Used a little metalic silver for some trim on the butt and ferrules. Re: Thread Color for Curado E7

Mr. Joyce, Now that's style man. You really brought it home with that one. I only wish I had thought of it first. SWEET!

Haha.....Michael, I like that... I do own thread other than black....don't tell the other M&M's....I'm going to use either the Green Classic Twist, or a mettalic green w/ silver and gold accents. I'll post some pics if I ever finish. Scott Sheets www.smsrods.com Re: Thread Color for Curado E7
