Hi all. I am in need of one of these old braced spinning rod guides. I am told it is a size 40?
The one i need is on the right.

There is nothing like lying flat on your back on the deck, alone except for the helmsman aft at the wheel, silence except for the lapping of the sea against the side of the ship. At that time you can be equal to Ulysses and brother to him.

Looks like a old perfection guide. They come up in sets on the big auction site sometimes. Is that a Harnell?

you could try here http://www.mudhole.com/XBSG-Spinning-Guides?quantity=1&custcol1=10 for the price it might be worth the try and see if it will match.
Some days the supply of available curse words is insufficient to meet my demands.

Chris,

Here's a NOS that may match your existing better?

The ones with the curved brace were made by perfection. The newer ones  with the straight brace are made by pacbay. I'll check the bone yard when I get home I might have a used one in decent shape but those big ones don't survive well. I know I have some smaller ones

Your welcome to have this one. I'm sure it will clean up with some never dull or fine wool. Measures 38.7 mm to the outside. If you want it pm me your address.

I found one too but it's in pretty sad shape. The solder failed at the brace. I got a decent 30 it that helps
