It is a nice looking reel. But I am blown away by the difference in quality. It ticks me off these reels are not sold here. Europe has them.....New Zealand and Australia have them. My next step up in a reel was going to be the Shimano Sustain...a $300 plus reel. I am glad I did not buy it. I know a lot of folks won't spend this kind of money on a reel but I would not be surprised to know that in Japan they sell $100 dollar reels that are made with same quality involved. Of course you won't find a $100 JDM reel on the Net. I just don't understand why the US market does not sell JDM reels.
