Rainshadow blanks

Rammerz:
Hi guys,

Thinking of getting a custom Rod built by valley custom rods and was wondering if anybody had any experience with the Rainshadow blanks?

Thanks!

Dave:
I have built up 20 or so Rainshadow blanks over the years; when I gear fish (which isn’t often nowadays) I use a Rainshadow 1263 built for a levelwind.  Love it.   This Christmas I have built up 2 Rainshadow flyrods for my grandsons.  Imo, as a rod builder and an angler, these are good value for the money sticks.  I have had one warranty issue over the years and Mark, formally of Valley Custom Rods was there all the way for me.  I have no doubt Chad Hammond will offer this same great service.
They aren’t quite Sage quality, but they are about the third of the price ;)

Rammerz:
Awesome, great advice Dave! Appreciate it and happy holidays!

typhoon:
Which Rainshadow blank?

Rammerz:
The blank I wanna get is the RX-7 2 piece salmon/steelhead. It's an 11 footer 10-20 lb rating
