CTS provides a broad range of nice colours for the blank. Why can’t the colour of the windings for a factory built rod be choosen as well?

Great well built rod to cast but need to be careful with line selection.

I just wanted to say thank you to everyone for my Revo 10 fly rod.. just finished my 6 days fishing in Cosmoledo, and the rod exceeded all expectations! I used a Rio GT 11 weight fly line with it, and it casted beautifully, half the week was windy too.
So my biggest surprise was how strong a rod it was for fighting fish.. no giant GT’s this time, but a large Wahoo and a Yellow fin Tuna offshore..
Thank you so much, and please thank the builders for me!
Also, the extended butt was amazing, worked exactly as I’d hoped, keeping the reel away from my body making fighting fish easier..

I received my Revo 10 weight fly rod today, took it straight out to the park to cast.
I started building my own rods because I wanted to try the CTS blanks and couldn’t seem to find rods built on these blanks online, and have been astounded by their quality, absolutely love them!
I was wondering what the finished rod would look like as I hadn’t specified thread colour etc, but was absolutely delighted by the finished build, it’s gorgeous!
The casting was effortless, its windy here today but put out the whole fly line with ease, the rod feels lively and much lighter than expected.
You’re probably busy, so I’ll end it there, just really wanted to say thank you so much for your work, and for getting the rod to me on time for my trip to the Seychelles.
The Revo is a revelation, what a fabulous rod!
