1st off I would not buy a new VS, the older ones are the reels to have, that external counter weight sucks and that is and has been a problem for me. I own 3

2nd the z series, I don't like that the rotor cup spins freely I have lost a few plugs do to this and will not use one to throw plugs, I have also had problems with the reel locking up when trying to reel a good fish in. I own 3

3rd I like the ss series for dunking bait, worms or live lining I have never one had a problem with one of these. I own 3

I break down all my penn reels in the winter, and before fall and load them with grease. the VS's go get sent in and I have the serviced
