If you could get the answers to 3 questions about Muskie Rods on the market today, what might the 3 questions be?

When will the "novelty" wear off, and prices on rods stabilize or perhaps even dip somewhat, much like calculator/various electronics prices have in the past?

When will st. Croix shorten the handle on their 7-6" and their 8'er?

When will someone come out with a production 7'4"

When will St. Croix change their blanks again to something a bit smaller diameter, lighter, and faster in their Premier line?

1. How does one "measure/compare" quality of the blank material. (example what is difference between IM-6,7,8 and is there a benchmark for this rating system? I.e. why is one IM-7 better than the other brand..?

2. What the heck does "modulous/modular" really mean when it comes to wraps of the strands? (kinda goes along with question #1)

3. How is rod eye/line guide placement determined..? Are more better?

Bonus Question

How/why are some blanks/rods so much lighter in weight than others, like Sage or new Fig-Rig rods compared to say another brand. (is this another quality issue or ?)
