A few years back I built a rod from a Sage blank.
I can't remember which blank.
Does RPL or RLP sound right?
If so what do the initials stand for?
And if anyione knows what generation
of graphite was it? Any help will be
appreciated.

Reserve Power Lightweight. Sage called it Graphite III.

I have a 590-4 RPL, I call it first generation fast.


Makes sense. The RPII line which preceded RPL was IM6, (Sage Graphite
II).


The RP line, what Sage called Graphite II, corresponded to IM8.
The RPL line corresponded to IMX.
