i bought the box and figured other people would be wondering what is in it. they probably arent all the same but im not upset with what came with it for the price i dont really care for the reel seats that came in the box but its just personal preference they seem well made so if anyone wants them let me know there were a few blanks i couldnt find in the catalogue so i gave my best guess what they would be good for im pretty new at this so i easily could be wrong

Jacob,

Thanks for your post -

Every mystery box will have different blanks - they will vary from box to box.

If you have a question about a blank or you are not able to find a model in the catalog - it may be tagged with an OEM number - send us a note, and we will do our best to help.

info@northforkcomposites.com or kelsey@northforkcomposites.com

Best,
Aleks

Nice! This is what I ended up with a couple weeks ago although I got the one with 20 blanks instead of 15+ reel seats. Definitely a fun mix.

Planning on building the 2 6' SJ blanks on the skeleton handles to give them extra length because I don't really have any use for a 6' heavy spinning blank. I have no idea what I'm to build on the P704 and P703. Let me know if anyone has used them for anything bass related.
