Great rod and reel choice.
More expensive rods can offer you the action that suits your style however. They will offer more detailed taper, hardware and weight or lack of.
I have fished Echo and they are tops for sure, but to also pick up a Helios, or a One, or a BIIx and to feel how light they are is a total advantage.
You can get by and do just fine without, but it is a luxury.
