You may want to go back to the source of your blanks for the sticker. I recenlty built a Winston BIIx and the decal supplied with the blank was torn and defective when I go it. Winston was glad to replace it but wanted the blank number before doing so and I really don't blame them for that due to what Tampa Jim has posted. The same type of BS is going on in the bamboo market too, there are a lot of offshore makers sending rods in that are made on tapers designed here in the states and I know of at least one current maker that has been imposed on by those people and he is not very happy with what they are doing and I don't blame him at all.

Every one of the blanks should have an id associated with it and if that ID is not with the rod, you may not get the decal. Good Luck, I hope that you do!!
