Hello girls and boys,
I have here a Hardy Wanless 6 lb rod in 8 foot length. It has been very badly restored in the past. The cane seems still ok and the label is also still intact. I would like to restore it. Could any of the owners of this rod help with the original ring spacing and also the thread colors, please. Many thanks for your time. Best, Bobby

I will measure my ring spacings.
Here is a photo of my 1950s version.
The intermediates are green. There is copper on one of the butt ring legs and the rings are in green tipped in red.
