IMX - G Loomis

And unless JW have branched out somewhat, they don't do "blanks" that i know of.

 

If it's a custom rod, it doesn't necessarily have to have the brand on it. My mate has a custom Calstar and it has no brand names on it at all - you wouldn't know unless you asked him.

G-Loomis

Sun, 2008-11-16 22:16

Designate and market a specific type of graphite rod as IMX graphite. In relative terms (and I am going off memory here) is about 20% lighter than IM6 and a bit stiffer - theoretically a lighter stronger rod.

 

So to sum up, its like a G-Loomis brand to designate the type of graphite it is made of - it's their "top of the tree" model I believe.
