The easiest way would be to have a rod builder re-wrap it with new guides. Otherwise you would have to cut the old wrappings and remove the old clear coat then you need the equipment required to re-wrap it yourself.

It depends on the builder... Most guys would charge between $5 and $10 per guide, plus the cost of the guide.
