I don't know.......I've got an older 650 SS that has been relatively trouble free for about 15 years. The bail thing can be a problem unless you put it in the right position before casting (only once in a while at first on mine). I eliminated that problem along time ago by cutting off the bail and making it a manual pickup.
The anti-reverse never gave me trouble but it certainly wasn't the best in the industry by a long shot. I modified mine to make it much better.
I've got mine mounted on an Allstar Breakaway 9' 6" that I got from MikeCC's shop. I personally like the setup for jetty fishing and such.
