Do any of you all experience with this reel? What are it's advantages & disadvantages? Have a chance to pick one up pretty cheap and I'm not finding as many reviews on it as I am the 400 B. All input is appreciated.

it doesnt have a level wind. i wouldnt want a reel like that personally. i know that a lot of people have been using non level wind reels for cowgirls like the trinidad. im sure you could get used to it. if its a deal jump on it. im sure its a good reel because its shimano.

As long as it's a Japanese-made Shimano. I've had bad luck with the Malaysian-made models personally.
