I have got a s/hand ABU 501 off eBay but not as good as my old one from many years ago. So is there any newer models worth looking at especially with anti reverse...?
I checked and it is the 704 Rob.I think you mean the 704 Mark. I've got a couple and they're nice reels for close-in trotting.
I bought a 507 mk2 a couple of years ago and it’s not been great. I returned it under warranty and it’s started playing up again. The build quality isn’t very good and one of the plastic parts in the winding cup is already worn. I’d stick with the earlier better made reels. You can’t even order a new part but have to buy the whole winding cup.
