The "i" models are all from China. The regular 7000's were from the Far East for a while too. Surprisingly, the reels made in Taiwan were the best of the bunch. Look for a green 7000B. Add ball bearings for the spool ($10) and you will have, what quite a few of us consider, the best of the 7000s.

Wish I hadn't sold that one I had... hope he's catching fish with it anyway.

I really want Sweden made only. I have had every one of the models Abu made (almost). This is a gift for someone. Long story but Sweden made is what I needed.
Anyway, I found one. Thanks for the replys

I have a mint 7000CL Big Game. Made in Sweden. This reel is mint in every way. I sent it out to have to have it tricked out with spool bearings, level wind bearings, ceramic pawl, Carbontex drag and new type power handle. I paid over $250 total, will sell for $200 shipped.
I have forgotten how to post pictures on this site. If an interest email me at
chlstn@optonline.net I'll send you a few pictures.
