i can get a really good deal on a core and a chronarch....I cant really decide which one, can you guys help me out here?

With no other information about what size, how you plan to use it, etc. The Core is worth more money than a plain Chronarch. I am tempted to buy a Core.

agreed...really depends on what you gonna do with it.

personally, would pick the core over the plain b, as well.

Would u guys pick the Core over the revo reels?

You're asking the Shimano Posse if they prefer a Shimano over another brand. Don't expect a non-biased answer there. lol ;D

Does a bear crap in the woods.........

You will be completely satisfied with either the Chronarch or Core. I don't have a Core (yet) but everyone that has commented on them also have Chronarchs.  Most of those guys have the 50MG, which is a VERY nice reel. Without exception, those with the Core or looking into a more technical comparison between the reels say they are worth the extra money.

Shimano Posse, yep, but it's still not fair to compare a Revo ($100 to 200) to a Core ($350-400) they are not in the same class. JMHO

I have a Revo Premier and a Japanese Core (Shimano Metanium Mg/Core 100MG) and do yourself a favor and get the CORE/Metanium.  

If you want to save some MONEY you can get the Metanium from japantackle.com. You can possibly find it for a little less, but japantackle.com does a great job of backing up none domestic warranty work if you ever need it.  

Ever think of the Daiwa Zillion?  

Happy shopping

core vs. chronarch, thats a tough one but i'd take a core over the chronarch because its worth more money so it must be nicer.

core vs. revo, that is very obvious....CORE!

ps...why dont you share where youre getting these "deals"???

  • Super User

Ok, bling wise, the Chronarch is just another silver reel like any other upper end Shimano, the Core is just plain sick sexy looking.  ;)

Some are going to say that you don 't see the red anodized spool, true to a certain point but what 's important is ...... you know it is red.  ;)

Thanks a lot guys...I think I'm going get the core, just becuase of what most people are saying, and like raul said, It looks sexy....I'm probably going to pair it with a MH Cumara...and that will make it look even more sexy...but I'll let you guys know when I get it, and I'll tell what I think about it....dsaavedra: I'm not aloud to tell...sorry .. Thanks agian guys.!

Id say a core just the fact if you don't like it you can sell it and buy a chronarch with little loss.
