helium lta vs graphite plus fishing rods

[crazychris]

thank you kistler for making these great rods. i have a helium lta7' mh and i love every moment fishing it. but seriously what is the diffrence between a lta rod and a graphite plus(i know about the weight). i'm interested in things like blank material,guides,real seat and especially finishes. i would appreciate a sincere answers leaving all comercials aside. thank you and good fishing to you all!

Helium LTA - lighter weight, more sensitive blanks because of the difference in materials used. Guides are much nicer with harder, slicker rings. Handcrafted in USA.
Graphite Plus - Handcrafted in China, but very high quality construction and inspected individually by our staff here in Magnolia before sent to a customer. Very durable blanks and standard rings.

There are several differences when you get down to the details but they both catch fish.

Hope this helps.
