Depends on the blank. If it's a Craft Black/charcoal colored blank, the dark wood colored one. If it is a green winston or brown sage blank, the rosewood. I didn't vote.

Agreed, blank color is important

I'm going to guess, because of the length and weight of the blank, it's a DC FT. Medium to dark gray blank. I could be wrong.

I voted for the burl rosewood. I like burls, but don't like all the bird's eyes in the one pictured. Yes, I'm THAT picky. :oops:

Blank color? Wrap color? Agate Stripper? If so, color? How about no insert? Just blank showing in the window. Maybe the customer's name on the blank in that location?

Winston WT 4-wt 10'0" normal price is $318.00. Thanks to flyaddict he will sell his blank that he bought on sale to us for $185.00
