>>954433Is that what the difference is? I was just trying to compare it with the regular $60 President and I thought it was all aesthetic stuff like the wood handle and that carbon fiber lookin arm for the handle but I never opened the thing up and compared them side by side. And I still haven't used the regular President much since it is the 35 with 30lb braid and I have been using memecasters instead when I want to throw something 1/2oz+.
The paint they did on those 2016 reels is cool tho. It has little blue and silver metal flakes in it that you can only see in bright light. Probably better you got that XT instead of the Revo SX because that is a lot of money to spend on a spinning reel for freshwater. And it's a President so you know it will be bulletproof. If I were going to spend $150+ on a spinning reel for fresh, I would get a Stradic CI4 or whatever.
