I spoke to neil yesterday as a matter of fact. Was looking into having him build me a custom rod few months back, but couldn't justify the cost for the blank being used.

Before I bought my GUSA (which I want another :)

Might want to check with Billy as he's almost convinced to make some "production" rods on the GUSA blanks.

I do know he's wrapping some nice rods for Capt Allen on the Reel Class for his fares TT^

Not really as he's quite competetive compared to other TRUE custom rod builders. 

Sure other places sell you a "custom" with the same guide spacing as the customer before you walked away with, stock components, etc built on a slim variety of blanks to choose from, but at a bargain price.  Hey, atleast you get to pick out the color of wraps, maybe a variation or three of styles, and a couple of decals. ::)

Stupid question maybe, but would the wraps go the other way for a left hand reel?

IA, sometimes it does.  Pretty sure Billy's rods that he built for himself go that way as he is a lefty.  Doesn't effect it all that much either way.
