I finished Sceptre staggered ferrule 7'10" #5/6 glass rod. The wraps are claret with tan single turn accents-depending on the light source, they turn different shades of burgundy. Unfortunately it's too cold to fish today, but I feel it will complement my Lamiglas 8' #5 perfectly. It won't be long and I will be able to test it on some spring creeks and make better comparison.

Vlad...you are truly an artist of the long rod builds. Damn fine work. I want us to do a project together when you have some free time. I was thinking of ordering a Steffen seven foot five weight blank and hold it until we could do a build.
Thanks for the compliment Cameron! Sure, Steffen sounds like a mighty fine choice for a blank. I never ordered one from him (I will in the future), but I know it will probably take several weeks for him to complete a blank order.
Thanks again,
Vlad
Wow wow wow...
This is awesome work!! Vlad...
Just has lots of "wow factors"... along your style... this is really special... I love the whole grip and extend a long way to the blank... smooth and elegant! Great work vlad! I will have one of your rod someday! I bet the collectors are start to lurking your work!

Mark, I truly appreciate your opinions and posts-thank you my friend!
I have little knowledge of glass rods. Whatever that is it looks sharp! Your craftsmanship is outstanding in all that you do. Keep posting, as I enjoy admiring your work.
take care,
Bryan
