Great vid, I have a mint condition made in USA 525 mag xtra. Actually a great idea as you can set it up as you like, with the extra magnets you can piggy back and the extra abec 9 bearings that you can install. Can run any combination you desire. IMO these reels like the one I have and the beauty you have in this vid are the best looking, as they progressed they put gold accents on them and also red. The old school with the chrome handles are the bomb, more character and look tough. Cheers.
The 525 is only in foreign markets and version 2 and 3 aren't received as well as the original. I just got in a mag 4 version for the exam and test work. It's blue and black. costs about 220 plus 20-40 shipping to USA. The fathom seems to be well-liked with a metal frame. I have two versions of testing. It comes down to casting style.and bearings and knowing how to set the brakes for the weight being cast for best results. You have many choices. Here's a tip for saving money. Go to Amazon UK and order. Price and shipping is better.
sorry for late reply, youtube doesn't notify me of questions. Order the endplate from Rich on ebay, it's 50.00 I buy mine from him. Please note, you can add 4 extra magnets to the mag holder for extreme stopping if need be like with heavy leads. I set them up with 12 N52 magnets, customers have said the like it.
no web site, may start one but it's a boutique business and makes no profits. I put too much time into the reels, 12 hours, to make money. Parts from Mystic parts in NJ or Richie reels on UK ebay. I get my parts from both.

Hi great video . Can you tell me are the magnets glued in place in a super mag ?
super mag has magnets, N52, pressed into place. I use a special metric drill and press the magnets. The drilled out holes are extremely tight.
do you have a website with parts and services?
Wondering the same thing.
