AT Microwave guide alignment

Has anyone out there tried spiral wrapping American Tackle Microwave casting guides on a casting rod.

I am currently making a new 7-ft. casting rod for a family member I thought about trying it. I have spiral wrapped several rods with conventional guides & have installed microwave guides on a couple of rods but have never tried both on the same rod.

I may try the spiral wrap unless I receive negative comments.

I used the airwaves on an 8 foot spiral wrap and they worked great.
