Thanks Dave! I'm still going back and forth between ordering a guide and doing it myself or stopping by Sav-on-tackle. Was your replaced tip Fuji?

No idea. For the price probably not, but I have a trip to San Simeon approaching in a few days so I just needed a functional rod. I'll swap it out just as soon as I return home. Replacing a rod tip is often times as simple as hitting it with a lighter to heat the glue, removing, gluing, and replacing. Typically the wrap is decorative and starts after the tube of the tip.

I hear ya'. I've had old rods replaced with ceramic ones or the generic berkely tips that broke on me shortly after replacing so I'm not sure if I want to take chances.
