It's even worse than that.
We'll make a series of reels called the Big Game. In the 7000 series, we'll call the level wind version the 7000 even tho it has a 5.3:1 retrieve, where every other reel we call a 7000 has a 4.1:1 retrieve. But, we'll call the non level wind version the 7500 just to keep it in line with the rest of the 7500s which all have 5.3:1 retrieves. Then, we'll discontinue all of them, and come out with new Big Games and call all of them 7000s even tho they all have 5.3 retrieves. We'll just add "HS" to the end of the number and leave it to the customer to figger out that HS means "High Speed". But, we'll also put "High Speed" on the reel's decal on all of our other 7000 reels.
Then, just for kicks, we'll come out with a bushing reel and call it a 7200. We'll leave people wondering whether it has the 4.1 or the 5.3 retrieve (it does have the 5.3)
We'll call all of our non level wind reels CTs. But, we won't have any uniformity for our level winds. We'll call some of them C3, some of them CL, and some of them CS.
My Finnish wife has been telling me since I met her that dey be something a little "off" wid dem Swedes.
