I just purchased a Abu Garcia Revo SX in a 7.1:1 gear ratio. I'm going to pair it with a 7'3" Heavy rod. I'm looking to keep it under $130. I just wanna see if anyone has any that pair really nice or that look sweet together.

Dobyns Fury 735

Temple Forks GTS C736-1

 

A little out of your budget MSRP at $160, but I paid less than $130 for mine, new in its wrapper.

 

I've got an MGX on mine, but an SX would be just fine.

Many great options in that price range. St Croix Mojo Bass (the newest gen built on scIII), Dobyns Fury, Daiwa Tatula would be my top 3 though.

7'4 Hvy Bass X

Abu Garcia Vendetta colors match that reel

 

Powell inferno 725 

I also just picked up the exact same reel in that gear ratio. I paired with the new Mojo Bass in a 7' MH. I had a 6'8" Med XF Mojo from Cabelas w/tags still on as I waited to make up my mind.  All I saw on this new rod was 'new and improved' so I bought it not knowing the improvements. I think it's much lighter than the  6'8".  Although I haven't used yet, I'm excited for the combo.
