Pinnacle Vision GLS - GLS70CAM-Equivalant?

Hello,

I have searched everywhere (I Think) I could find but I was only able to find a catalog of Pinnacle Rods from 2011, which did not have the GLS model in it. My customer is looking for an equivalent to the 7' blank but 8' Does anyone know any information about the Pinnacle GLS Vision Line? I would appreciate a a suggestion for a better starting place. Or any suggestions from the seasoned professionals to how to best select an equivalent blank from a customers outdated model?

Thank you,

Alex

Use the Common Cents system to the left, top and find out what you are actually looking at, than order a blank from one of the dealers to the left that you can get that info from, or ask here to see if anyone has an option. The Pinnacle rods I doubt are made of anything better than IM7 at best, the old salt rods I used for family were composite, or composite with a solid glass tip like the UglyStiks. Every one I've picked up from the rack was built specifically for beating the price point, not excellence over the years.
