Custom rod reccomendations

Hi y'all 

I'm hoping to have a custom rod made for my daughter's 1st birthday. Nothing too fancy, probably an ultralight spinning setup she could use for bluegill, creek trout etc. as she grows up. This will not be her first rod, we have plenty of beater ugly sticks for the first couple years when they use them to smack every bush and rock in sight, but will be a rod she can grow into. Components don't need to be top of the line but I'd like some custom colors and maybe her name.

I'm having trouble finding a custom rod builder who will return my voicemails, so I figured I would turn to the wealth of knowledge on the forum for advise.

Anybody have good experiences with local rod builders? I'm open to non-local as well but local is always a bonus. I'm open to any and all suggestions.

Thanks!

Local to where?

Local to where?

Sorry, California. I'm in the greater Sacramento area, but willing to drive/ship for the right situation
