Divine Rainbow - stripped down

All wrapped up and I have put color preserver on the wraps.  The top tip already has one coat of varnish, have to coat the rest of the section and will dip.  I really like this B&W Jasper/Gold thread combination.
 



Okay, I have cleaned the grip and stripped off the old varnish.  I just started wrapping today.

Divine Rainbow


A very nice 9'6" rod from the Fred Divine Company.  I love the reel seat on this rod.  Had to try it out, I like the way it handles a 6 wt WF Sylk line, but it would probably work well with a DT7 as well.  I will post pictures as I progress, despite what you see, the wraps are black & white jasper with gold trims.  Just finished re-seating the ferrules.
