There's an Abu expert on another website who maintains that the latter-year original black BG 7000 reels were only "assembled" in Sweden from Taiwanese-made parts, even tho "Made in Sweden" is etched on the plates. According to him, the dead-giveaway things to look for are pointed, rather than squared, ends of the star drag wheel, and red grease in the drive which you'll see when you remove the handle and star drag.
There's something else about how the "G" in Game intersects another letter, but I'll be damned if I can remember what it was
