Question

Hey guys this may be a stupid question but Ill ask it anyways. I have a custom casting rod that my step dad bought me. My question is I dont like the handle on it. Can a rod builder take it off and put a handle of my liking on the rod?

Yup. Rebuilds and modifications can always be done to your rods.

yes and no.
If you want to keep the guides in place you may not be able to replace the seat (if ithas one) and or use hypalon or eva grips. you could use any form of deckhand style (corktape, shrink wrap, tuna cord, sein twine, etc). by working backwards (from the butt end up) it will limit your choices other than deck hand style.
If it is a nice blank or has sentimental value to you it could be stripped completely and rebuilt to your liking.
There is a building class tonught in costa mesa. come on up and check out your options.
