Soulmate Glassic 764 S-Glass Fly Rod Building Kit

The perfect glass rod for small waters and supreme presentation

Not every situation on the water calls for maximum casting distance. Often, it's the precise casts under overhanging branches, a clean roll cast along the bank, or an elegant single-hand Spey cast that determines success or failure.

The Soulmate Glassic 764 was developed precisely for these situations.

With its length of 7’6”, line class #4, and modern Medium Fast progressive S-Glass action, it is the ideal choice for small to medium-sized rivers and streams. It presents dry flies exceptionally delicately, allows for light nymph fishing, and boasts a casting performance that one would hardly expect from a glass rod.

The Glassic 764 combines the unmistakable feel of a classic fiberglass rod with the precision of modern blank technology.

Modern S-Glass Technology – lively, precise, and exceptionally versatile

The heart of the kit is the Soulmate Glassic S-Glass Blank.

Made from modern S-Glass, the blank impresses with its high recovery speed, enormous resilience, and pleasantly low weight. Compared to classic fiberglass rods, the Glassic reacts significantly faster and more directly, without losing its characteristic, smooth action.

The progressive medium-fast action loads the blank cleanly with only a little line outside the rod tip, creating impressively precise line control.

The result:

  • exceptionally delicate dry fly presentations
  • perfect drift control for light nymph fishing
  • maximum precision at short and medium distances
  • enormous line control for difficult casts
  • a lively, direct fish fighting feel
  • excellent leader protection even with fine tips

Overhead cast, roll cast or single-hand spey – the Glassic feels at home everywhere

The Soulmate Glassic 764 was developed for waters where classic overhead casts are often not even possible.

Whether densely overgrown streams, small rivers, or tangled bank areas – the Glassic shows its greatest strength precisely there.

The blank loads excellently with little line, allowing for:

  • precise overhead casts
  • powerful roll casts
  • effortless single-hand Spey casts
  • Snap-T and Switch-Up casts in confined spaces
  • exact presentations even under branches or along overhanging vegetation

Especially in difficult casting situations, the progressive glass action provides exceptional feedback and control. This ensures that almost every presentation is clean, controlled, and with minimal effort.

The ideal rod for dry flies and light nymph fishing

The Glassic 764 feels at home wherever precision is more important than pure casting distance.

Fine dry flies are presented gently and controlled, without unnecessarily disturbing the water. At the same time, the blank has enough backbone to safely guide light nymph rigs and confidently fight larger trout.

Thanks to the progressive glass action, almost the entire blank works during the fight. Head shakes are cleanly cushioned, and fine leaders are reliably protected.

Precisely this harmonious fighting behavior makes up the special appeal of modern glass rods.

Who are the kits suitable for?

The Soulmate Kits are ideal for fly fishermen who want to build their own high-quality rod and perfectly tailor it to their specific needs. Depending on the model, it is suitable for different fish species, water types, and techniques – from small streams to larger rivers or the coast. Thanks to carefully matched components, the kit is suitable for both ambitious beginners and experienced rod builders.

What else do I need?

The kits contain all essential components and consumables for building your Soulmate fly rod. However, some additional tools and aids will make your work easier and ensure a particularly clean result.

Helpful Tools and Materials

  • Good work light: Very important so that wraps, transitions, and any adhesive residue remain clearly visible.
  • Stable workspace: Ideally, the assembly area can remain set up for the entire construction period.
  • Sharp knife or scalpel: For precisely cutting thread ends.
  • Lint-free cloths: For cleaning components and removing adhesive residue.
  • Denatured alcohol: For degreasing and cleaning the blank, grip, and adhesive surfaces. Acetone should be used very carefully.
  • Small scissors: Helpful for winding, positioning, and shortening the wrapping thread.
  • Fly-tying bobbin: Recommended if you are working with the included rod stands.
  • Fine sandpaper or steel wool: For carefully roughing up adhesive surfaces.
  • Tape measure, pencil or China marker and masking tape: For guide spacing, markings, and protective lines.

Optional Extras

A rod dryer or slow-rotating motor is particularly helpful to ensure the epoxy finish remains evenly distributed during curing. Without continuous rotation, the finish can run or form drips.

The included wrapping thread can be used directly. Of course, you can also choose your own colors and customize your rod. Silk thread can appear transparent to translucent with proper processing, while nylon generally creates a stronger and more opaque color effect.

Difficulty, setup time, and service?

Difficulty

The Soulmate Fly Rod Building Kit is suitable for ambitious beginners as well as experienced rod builders. All essential components are coordinated, and the individual steps are clearly explained in the instructions. However, some manual skill, patience, and careful work are still important, especially when aligning the guides, wrapping the thread, and applying the finish.

Assembly Time

Depending on your experience, working method, and model, you should allow about two to three evenings for complete assembly. This does not include the respective drying and curing times for glue and rod finish. A calm assembly without time pressure ensures the cleanest result.

My Service Promise

Even after your purchase, I won't leave you alone with your project. If you have questions about individual steps, components, guide positions, or the application of glue and finish, you will receive personal support. My goal is for you to be able to build your Soulmate fly rod safely, cleanly, and with joy – from the first step to the finished rod.

Need a spare part?

No problem: For our Soulmate Fly Rod Building Kits, we offer all suitable spare parts for a small handling fee. You do not need to send in the rod for this.

Since all components are precisely matched, you will always receive the correct replacement part – quickly, easily, and without additional adjustment effort. This way, you can easily replace damaged or lost parts and continue building or repairing your rod right away.
