My "honey" is a two-peice.[
] The bamboos I have are slightly heavier than the glass equivalents of the same length and line weights, and I use a heavier reel on them for balance and feel. So, they're heavier by an ounce or two. The two glass rods I'm using balance with Hardy Featherweights. I don't have near the collection you have, but I'm sure there are a ton of combinations that end up lighter/heavier.

I have yet to ever break a fiberglass rod, either fly or spin. However, I have broke Orvis and a Wright/Mcgill canes. Both were my fault high sticking with a 4x leader, but still . . . I'm a little careful with the angles I put bamboo under. With fiberglass, I don't even think about it.
