Phenix Ultra Custom Spinning rod

Custom rod built on Phenix Ultra UMBX-S700M-B Blank.  I wanted a very comfortable grip handle but there was none out there that i had liked.  I liked to have the EVA grip to be where i put my hand on and so i decided to design my own reel seat.   It consists of a 3d printed insert where the Red ring is in the middle of the grip and the red ring is there for stress support to prevent over tightening.   Going with the red theme i added various custom accents from my own designs to matagi components to go with the rod.  I finished off the build with a hybrid use of Fuji Torzite guides for the stripper guides and micro double looped recoil guides(like what the loomis NRX uses) to maximize sensitivity and lightweight setup.
