Hi to all. I have tried to contact Guides & Blanks, but I am having no luck. I have purchased many, many items from them in the past. I am just wondering if perhaps they have gone out of business. Any ideas ?

That is sad news.... I'm no rod builder but have found almost exact replacement guides in the past for repairing damaged ones and also a reel seat upgrade from them. these were the go-to 'they'll have it' place.

No, and the worst of it is, Hugh and I use a rod builder, a lovely guy who we have both known for years, reasonably priced too, unusual these days, but he is 83 or 84 so may not be able, or bothered to go on for too much longer.😥
