To all of you guys bragging about your Revos, you must have nothing to compare them to, try a Lew's or better yet an old Ambassadeur with just 2 bearings, if they have more there is something wrong. I take that back I have a black Max that has been it may be the last good reel by Garcia, it is still an Ambassadeur, which is, by the way the correct spelling. I have 3 of the old ones and one Revo S which was given to me. Got it for all it was worth. I have a 5000, 5000C, and a 5500C, all 40 to 50 years old and just as smooth casting and reeling as when they were new. Ever listen to the gears grond on fishing tv shows when trying to land a two pound bass, won't happen with these reels!!
