WOW Sk nice work, I am going to have to send mine now :drool:

I'm sending a 710 this week, can't wait to get it back.

wow i cant believe how nice that greenie turned out. i wish u had a picture of the before cause its so hard to believe that it actually came back in wat looks to be like perfect condition. are there any new components on there or was everything just "restored"

Did I misread his last name? Must have had an interesting childhood.

Here's the last one he did for me. I think I've had 3-4 done. Had him do this 704 in the old 700 dark green. http://www.striped-bass.com/Stripertalk/attachment.php?attachmentid=24817&stc=1&d=1197380939http://www.striped-bass.com/Stripertalk/attachment.php?attachmentid=24818&stc=1&d=1197380939

Wow - talk about a niche market...could not do that without the internet.

I was going to send one but saw a whole bunch of threads on SOL by customers who hadn't heard from him. I guess he was changing jobs or in training. Did you have any problems? Looks great.

This 710z was beat to hell. Got it at a yard sale.
Came back as this:

do u remember wat he charged for it to come back like that?

nevermind just found his website and saw for myself. not a bad price though... 40-45 if no parts are needed to make it look like that again thats nice.

Thanks.

He's around now. I emailed this thread to him on Monday and he replied yesterday with a thanks. I have never had any issues with him or his work. $4045 is about right and he usually only charges for the part... no labor as he hs the reel all apart anyway.
