    Default Exactly half or close to it?

    I am ready to do a final cut on each half of a bamboo rod to bring it to a finishd length of 7'-6". Should one of the two sections necesarily be slightly longer than the other? Should the final length of the tip section, including mounted tip top, be slightly longer than the butt half with reel seat mounted? By how much, 1/8-1/4" as long as the assembled final total length is 90" in my case? Thanks for your help
