SSU Blank Ratings

I currently own an XS11MS and a SS101MS. Great rods for their intended purpose but I am looking into having a custom one built. It would either be the gsb1321m or the ssu1321mh. I'm leaning toward the gsb because the ssumh blank is too stiff. WHY in the world don't you guys build an 11' M in the ssu blank selection??? THAT would be the ultimate in all round, one rod does all blank. I find it very odd that you don't offer it. Please explain why??

When??? I'm gonna try to have my builder extend a ssu1201m blank by 12" to make a 1321ms. It will still only be rated 1-4. I know it would still be a 1-4oz rated blank, the ultimate would be 2-4oz. If/When you guys come out with a ssu1321m blank, what rating would the blank carry?

When is still to be

When is still to be determined. It will probably be a 1 1/2 to 4 oz rod.

Ok, thanks for the heads up.

Ok, thanks for the heads up. Being that the facotory blank would only be rated 1-4 (too light) I'm thinking of having him extend the the 1201mh. This would make it 11' and a 2-6oz rating. This is going to be the ultimate rod!!
