Yes. The Wossner line of parts are top of the line.

You won't be disappointed.

They are lighter according to Karl, and yes just because he and I were talking a long time on the phone. You also save some money over carillo and pauter. They came in within .2 or .3 grams of each other too.

Thanks

I'd like to go with the TI rods if for no other reason than the inner bling factor, but it's just not in the budget.

I have these Finnish made rods. According to my "high tech" kitchen scale all rods have equal 692G weight. Very high quality. Rod manufacturer said he could make them lighter if necessary.
