Had good luck with one for several years, but I didn't take as good care of it as I should.

Abu has been building reels for many, many years. They originally built their reels in Sweden and those were one of the highest quality on the market. Today, most of their reels are assembled in China from parts made in China and a few other countries. (some gears from Korea and some bearings from Japan). Abu still has very high standards and a very good inspection and quality control system which allows them to stand behind their products 100%. The Black Max is a very good reel period. But it is not my personal first choice. For a standard worm and pall levelwind, low-profile, bass reel, I would get one of the New Lew's Reels from Lynn Reeves over Abu because I feel that Mr Reeves is even holding a higher standard for quality than Abu.
