I see TW now has them posted to their website without much info.  I must say, it is a sharp looking reel.  Combines some of the best looks of a Core and a Daiwa.  PURDY...

It is a sexy piece.

I love 'em. I have two right now, 6.4 and 7.1. I will probably get more in the future.

I just picked up the second one Yesterday. They had the new style at Bass Pro, but apparently not in left hand yet. I ended up with the older straight handled one.

But hey, if you buy any Abu reel over 159.99 before September 7th, you can get a free pair of Wiley X P-17 or ZAK's. I sent the stuff in for mine today, let's hope they don't try to screw me. I'll let you guys know how it works out.

i have bought two reels and received two pairs of glasses from them

Thats good to know. I was a little worried about it becoming one of those situations where they will find the simplest little mistake to keep you from getting your rebate.

How long did  it take to get your glasses?

I am actually going to bps first thing tommorow morning and picking up this reel for the trade-in. This reel feels pretty solid and i hope it will perform great! I really don't care about the glasses, but it's a bonus i guess. Just gonna sell it anyways.

you should have no problems getting your wiley's .... 

first one took 2 months, second pair took 3 weeks

This is going to be the next reel i get and those glasses are going to be a nice free gift.

Thanks for the reply, hopefully mine will be here 3 weeks.

Looks like it always has, just a different handle and some cosmetic changes.

Although I don't wear the models that they offer with the reel, Wiley-X are great glasses. You can't go wrong with FREE

Does anyone know what SPECIFICALLY they changed on the SX from last year? - besides the little red doohickey on the handle?

Isn't that like saying someone looks just like someone else, only different?
