Stella FA's vs SW's

<< < (3/3)

Ben Rutkin:
No way its true!  Plastic bushes come standard on all Stella's and the bearings are the silver candy balls used to decorate cakes.  I wouldn't get a Daiwa either, they are held together by 'hopes and dreams' according to the salesman I saw. 

Jarvis Walker.... Now that has quality parts. Got me a JW for $100 less than the Stella FA - BARGAIN!

I know a guy that was talked out of buying one by his local tackle shop because they told him that the handle spun on "plastic bushes" rather than a bearing???
I find it hard to believe, but because I dont have one yet... I couldn't confirm either way.
Can anyone shed some light on this?

This is false.

Robert Palcak:
Thanks Luke... that clears that up  ;D
BTW Brandon - a couple of weeks ago, I fully stripped down a mates 20000FA that was in desperate need of a service. It's not an overly difficult job... but it was quite time consuming!

Brandon Khoo:
hi Rob
I'm sure it isn't rocket science but I'd rather leave it to the guys who do it for a living who I know would be better at it than me. That way, I suppose I can blame someone else when I lose a fish!  :D

Greg Burt:
When it comes to servicing my Stellas I would rather invest another $50 in a pro job.

Even the Spheros FA series used one BB on the handle
