Places Like Matagi for Components

Hello. I'm new to the forum and rod building all together. I've got my first blank coming in the mail hopefully this week, and I'm excited to get started. Either way, I've been told Matagi is pretty easy to deal with as far as purchasing from them. Is there any other companies like Matagi with a wide array of unique components?

YES....the sponsors on the left side of this site !!! We all have our favorites, but they won't last on this site if they are not very good.

Check on the links and see their offerings.

Spell checking is good, proofreading is better.

Being respectful of others is an excellent idea.

Phil mis wrote a word and corrected it. That's all this was about. Nothing terribly important.

There was no offence was intended.
Most of the problems I see on message boards could be solved with a Spell Checker and a moment taken to proof read what we have written.

The fact is, many times when I would also like to know the answer to the question posed, I can't understand the answer!
Missing words misspelled words and lack of punctuation are the curse of the internet.

It is getting worse, with the use of TEXT abbreviations, but that's another subject.

PLEASE, my friends, if you are going to spend the time to comment, have enough respect for your own thoughts to proofread your text.

Thank you. I did in fact order some of your components for my current build.

Andrew unhide your email address in your settings. I'm stocking Matagi components to decorate your reel seat with custom hood and nut configurations. I'll send you some photos of some already made. Or, give me a call tomorrow and I could text them to you. I have a pretty good selection of parts.
