Hey every body,I'm the new guy here,and I just want to say hello.Since this is the custom rod & reel forum I'd like to talk about tricking out reels.I currently have 40 Ambasadeurs and most of them have been customized to one extent or another.Most of my reels have been upgraded with ceramic bearings,& Lews BB1N power handles.I also like the older heavy chrome frames and have changed out the aluminum ones.I also have changed the colors of my side plates.My 1500 & 2500c's have also colored side plates.So far I have a Red,Blue,and Burgundy 1500C's and a Red,Blue,Burgundy,and Gold 2500C's.I have Red,Black,and Silver 4500C's,all old style reels.I'm in the process of up-dating my newer style Ambassadeurs.I want to anodize the side plates,but haven't found anybody to do them yet. When it comes to my reels I just can't leave well enough alone! I guess I like to be different.I'll update you guys later when I finish some new reels.
