Not sure you'll notice much difference between ss3000 and 5000 t,... the 6000 are a little bigger

I have a set of 4 and think they are superb not used them for a couple of years and I'd hard pushed to sell them.

Cannot recommend the Weston Slow Oscilation shafts highly enough for these - just had my 5000ts done and it's amazing the impact these have had on line lay and casting

I had my old 6000T's done, line lay conversation by Weston, great line lay, even on 15lb plus lines.

Line lay is simply nuts when you compare- well worth it IMO

Yeah you can buy direct and do it yourself, or (like me) have them serviced and fitted at the same time. Think it worked out £80ish a reel with full service and a few other parts needed.

I have a few mates who have fitted them themselves, but mine were in desperate need of a cleaning/service so made sense to get it done at the same time.

Well worth it, feels like 3 new reels
Are you sure?
