Aurelio,
When ccrick52 came to Durango and we fished together I tried his 6'6" 6 pc Lamiglas rod and compared it to mine. They were significantly different. His was softer than mine and I think cast better. I do like mine but I always use a 4wt on it and it casts a 5 wt easily. Normally I carry it as a backup to my 6 pc, 7' Lami, or my 6 pc, 7 1/2' Lami, since it is easy to carry in my pack.
I am fortunate enough to have the 6 pc Lamiglas rods in 6'6", 7', 7'6", and 8'. The 7 1/2' is the sweetheart of the lineup but they are all nice. I also have the 7 1/2' and 8' in 3 pc. BTW, if you ever build one, I'd suggest single foot guides based on comparisons of the ones I own.
