A solid spinning reel from a manufacturer of high-quality reels. It is solid and capable of handling a good-sized fish. All functions are normal. There is some loss of surface finish on the gold areas with no loss on the body and spool. Made to be used in salt water. I striped the line to verify that there was no saltwater corrosion and was pleased to find only a very small area that was easily cleaned. With proper care it should function well for several years
