Just came up from the Dungeon. You guys got me to thinking about the weight of guides and this is what I found. 10 #3 single foot guides weigh .9 grams. 10 #3 snakes (double foot) guides weigh 1.0 grams. I defy anyone to tell me thay can detect that when a rod is built. As for the extra thread, I weighed a 5 foot piece of size A...the scales would not dect it! As for the extra wwaps making the rod stiffer...maybe, but again, I defy anyone to be able to detect it. I think the bottom line is build, or have built what looks good to YOU, and don't worry about the weight of the guides or the wraps.
