Where'd you get those knobs? Ben trying to find some abu knobs, not much available, and those are pretty cool!
Those are the stock knobs. Maybe you can order them directly from Lew's?? Not sure.

Hi jbabin193. Sorry for late reply.

I can't read japanese but here you have a url where is the description of the rod

http://tzlure.com/jackson-qu-on-bastard.html

http://www.jackson.jp/products/detail/?products_id=4

All fuji, reel seat and guides.
And blank is a mix of carbon 24-30t and fiberglass.

You can try to read the translation to english of that website.

PS: the portuguese translation is awful, better read japanese.

Best regards
