I should have bought one back in the day!  They made two versions.  The first version was like 2005 and then they "updated" it in like 2010.  What one are you looking for?

The one with the push button line release and not the thumb bar.  I've seen them pop up on eBay from time to time but nothing recently.

Gorgeous reel!  I thought that one came one with the thumb bar.  Very cool to know.

They're rare as a hen's teeth.  I've only seen a couple on eBay within the last year, all the rest had the thumb bar.  I'm not a big fan of thumb bars on Ambassadeurs as the frame will be roached if it breaks.  Only options are to buy a new frame or remove the thumb bar, notch the side plate, and add a push button clutch.

What the model number on this Record?  The 4600 model is called the 40 so what's the 4500 model labeled?  Thanks!
