Hey guys, I'm in the process of re-wrapping a vintage Harnell #552 surf rod and want to go back to original thread colors for the wraps.
I have found some info. that what was used was Gudebrods #209, #326 and or #358 .........I know that #209 is a yellow and #326 is scarlett,
but what color is the #358 ?, and are these standard thread or NCP ?

the original wraps on the rod are no longer there.
Any help/info. sure would be welcome.

Thanks !
