Here's a 700H I wrapped in a copper theme. Forecast easy-tight reel seat, Fuji BHNNG's, acid wrapped, with some X-flock on the foregrip to help protect it from the rail. I could have made it look cleaner if I brought the X-flock all the way to the epoxy ramp and did the ramp over it, but I wanted to make replacement of the X-flock easy as it will get chewed up over time.

That is a beautiful looking rod!
How long is the butt section?

Thank man :)
This one is for me, and since I'm 6'2" and exclusively use the rail, I use 14" hypolon for the butt. From the center line of the reel spool to the end of the buttcap, it's about 20".
Edit: Normally I use 15" hypolon on the rear grips for my personal rail rods, but the forecast reelseat is quite long so I cut an additional inch off of the hypo before installing it.
Beautiful Work Jon as always! ;)
Thanks brotha! :)
Stunning work again Jon :)
Beautiful rod big guy. Use it in good health.
Beauty it reminds me of mine Jon.
I fished mine today and really liked it, lots of power in that rod, to drag up some Firetrucks
Consider this a testimonial as it's an obvious art piece, that looks very durable and easy to maintain.

For some reason, I missed this post. ??? I'm glad you like the rod brotha! Did you catch anything on it? Any action pics?
I caught some big red grouper on it but no action shots.
