Looking for a ABU 7000C3. Not interested in the new style that came out a couple of years ago, I want the style and color as is in the following pic's.
Note, the newer style has a plastic wide thumb rest.

Not picky, greedy!
I have 6 ABU 7000's, all on Tiger Rods. 5 of them are as above, one is not a C3 and has black color side plates along with the bushings instead of the C3 bearings.
I would just like the whole set to match. Am I be trying to be color coordinated or am I just being annal?

I am the same way Kutter, when I use three rods to fish, the reels and rods have to match or I wont use them. I will keep my eyes open for ya.

Here is a pic that I posted awhile back of some of my rod/reels. The black one is obvious. It is a 7000C but not a C3. It's been in my collection for around 6 years but used less than a dozen times. Has good Power Pro Plus 80 lb braid on it now.

I dont have one handy that i can think of.Maybe go to a thread called my new custom rod rock that i posted and you maybe able to see it on there.

Do you want any close up pics of the reel or anything? How do you want to do it? Oh also, it doesnt have any of the stickers on it..As soon as i get a new reel i peel the stickers off of it..Im weird about it, I guess the same way you are about having all matching stuff, I just peel the stickers off of the reel...Dont know if that matters to you or not, but i thought i would tell you

Why on earth would you want to take all the identifying stickers off of all your reels? I got burned once before on a Shimano Baitrunner that had the name peeled off. When I got it, it wasn't Shimano, but Silstar, a cheap imitation that looked identical. I am not implying anything or mean any offense, just nervous due to what has happened before.

Just never thought about trading it or having to prove what it is I guess...I just think the reels look more rugged without the stickers, and the reason I started doing it is because the stickers started getting knicked up and coming loose, so i took it off and liked the way it looked, so i started doing it all the time...I mean I understand why you wouldnt want to trade if you dont, no big deal..I know its a C3, and thought i would offer to trade you..But again if you dont want to, its cool with me.:big_smile:

Interesting. I just checked all the internet auctions I know off, not one listed. At least not one like I'm looking for. No, you don't have to worry, I wouldn't bid against anyone I know or from the BOC.

Where do I vote? I thought this was a poll regarding whether Kutter was anal or not? Oh well, I vote anal. Mostly 'cause I am, possibly, sometimes that way meself.
And as you all can see by the pictures (not just of fishing equipment, look at his GARDENS and property!) he might.....be that way.
Can't say anything bad about it. :big_smile: (Uh, looks like a great reel!)
Webster's: designating or of such traits in the adult as orderliness, stinginess, and obstinacy, regarded as unconscious psychic residues of that stage - excessively orderly, stingy, stubborn, etc.
Dang it, what did our parents DO to us? Although I personally don't consider a $100 plus reel STINGY to anyone.
MATT! Don't take labels off of anything! I know they look better without(IMO), but even paper labels make items worth MORE!
You'd have worn 'em off anyway though. :wink:
