I'm just curious as to which is the best place to get a custom rod done around southbay/long beach/north oc area. How much would it cost to get one done? I am specifically looking for a custom jig stick but at the same time don't have a lot of money because of school. Just wondering, Right now I want to inquire about prices/places so that I can save up money to hopefully get one done before the summer begins.

Check out http://www.nimcustomrods.com/, he wraps my rods and lives around the Cerritos area.

The other one that I can recommend would be Moon, he's on several different boards and I believe he's on this one too (Senor Tuna, Get Bent). He's over at Fisherman's Depot in Bellflower.

Fisherman's Depot
9836 Flower St.
Bellflower, CA 90706
(562) 925-5200

Another recommendation would be Taka's Tackle in Anaheim.

Taka's Bait & Tackle
2707 W. Lincoln Ave.
Anaheim, CA 92801
(714) 527-2920

You will definitely NOT go wrong with either of these guys.

a custom wrap rod can range from 100-900 all depends what do you want to use like reel seat and guide and how many layer of wrap you want. a 9.ft jig stick with 9+1 (ok guide) no reel seat Spiro with shrink tube and butt cap can run around 250-300

I DO NOT recommend the shop. (It's a disgrace to see the prices this place charges to us fishermen and Women) I do recommend the guy named Jacob who wraps rods at Sav-On Tackle. He does good work and will talk to you about important details before starting your rod. You do not have to shop at Sav-On Tackle, just deal with him directly.
