This reel is made in Sweden and new in the box. I'll sell for $165.

I also have a used one in excellent condition. I'll sell for $130. I do not have a box for the used reel. I can offer the reel with black or silver power handle ( updated football type)

No Longer available

Are you sure you are listing the right model Bill? Sounds like a BG7000CL.

Mike;
The info on the box states ABU Big Game Collection 6500CL Both reels are identical. These are the older model made in Sweden reels.

Yes Mike... they are the smaller size black model. Bill, flat handles on these... not the football knob right?

I don't know, I'm pushing 67. I sent the pictures but they may be too big?? Who knows.
Hahahaha... 68 here. No problem... there ya go.

These are my favorite 6500 Abu reels. Heavier sideplates and gears, higher speed, more rugged, simple and controllable (depending on who is attached to the thumb). If I did not already have one... one of these would be gone.

The pictures are of the used reel. The NIB reel looks the same except has no line.

Thanks 1doz.
