I bought all my supplies at Greg's in Lake Stevens,when I asked him about this,he said as long as the rod is suitable for what your fishing for it makes no difference. I've gone back and looked at his catalog and some of the rods are listed per style. I think it has to do with the action and style of rod your gonna build. If you want a 5' UL rod they probably figure you're not gonna build it as a casting rod,so they list it as a spinning blank?

I don't know for sure,but if a guy that's built 100's of custom rods says it doesn't make a difference,I'll believe him.
