I have to ask, WHY? . With all of the options available today , why would anybody want a 1pc rod that long and have to deal with shipping charges and transporting . If you think a 1pc rod is going to out fish or out cast the 2pc rods made today , you have not been keeping up with the changes

Jason , the best and easiest way I have found is to use a product called Gudebrod Rod Restorer . It comes in a 1oz bottle and you just brush it on the scratch and let dry . I have used on some pretty good scratches with good results . We do carry it ,but it is not on our web site

We have had customers come in our shop looking for these blanks . It is fun to watch the expression on their face when they get one in their hand . Eyes get big and bright when they see the color , and then when they get it in their hands you see a smile from ear to ear . I personally love the color . They are not on our web site yet , but they are in stock .
