How about an ALPS reel seat??

Just other alternatives just in case. 

 

I'll have a look...

 

They look great.

 

I'm so comfortable with the cut ASC I'm going to stick with it. No matter how I hold the rod/reel I'm comfortable. I get a great grip for casting too. It just works for me..

It's the old broke thing....

    I handled a rod with a full ACS reel seat.. I liked it.. I'm actually leaning towards the going with full reel seat on the build now.
