Sources for S/S2 fiberglass - 3 piece, 6' 6", 3wt or 4 wt?

Is there a source for relatively affordable S glass fiberglass blanks fitting the description above?

I looked at Fenwick with their MODEL # FG663-3 which looks like a great fit. But looking online, all I found was EPIC with their astounding prices (at least for me). I have a friend that did some design work with Fenwick and probably could have gotten me a blank from them but he's no longer with Fenwick. Wish Fenwick would sell their blanks again.

Anyways, love to have any more affordable sources.

Thanks!
Mo

I put a word in to Rod Geeks about a year ago that they should make some fiberglass fly rods using their S glass But they have been busy putting out many rod models since that I am sure are in higher demand.

If you are willing to go e glass there are many more companies to chose from and affordable. Since you like Fenwick google James Green fly rod blanks.
