Re: Ultra Smooth
Saw this on IG. This demo is convincing: https://www.instagram.com/p/CL-porsJn1r/?hl=en Hmmm...something pretty suspect with this....looking at the way the spool on the left stops suggests to me that the spool tension knob is done up a fair bit tighter than the fancy “double bearing spool” on the r...

Re: Lets see all them Daiwa's
This just reinforces my Alphas bias. Clearly they are the best reels on the face of the planet. It's is always some cherished Alphas that gets the custom treatment like that. Cheers mate. I have to agree 100%. Love everything about the alphas...even just the way as it feels in the hand! I’ll put up...

Re: Lets see all them Daiwa's
I really dig that Alphas. Blue is my jam - looks similar to my Steez. Who painted it? Thanks! I believe it's a Calfish paint job, it was also tuned and polished originally at TT before I bought it from it's previous owner. It's a really unique color as the paint can appear purlple, to blue ,to redd...

Re: Lets see all them Daiwa's
Nearing completion of my first Alphas tune and have a new appreciation gig HOW deep the “modding rabbit-hole” can go on certain models....Alphas takes the cake for me so far!!!... Original “Alphas 103” was given the “‘saurus“ treatment....and for pretty obvious reasons has now been crowned the “Alph...

Re: Alphas Appreciation Thread
From Alphas 103 to Alphas LSD..... :-$ \:D/ Conservative definitely wasn’t in the design brief for my first shot at customising an Alphasaurus lol Got every performance mod and upgrade you would expect (inside and out) and a light sprinkle of a few other bits & bods). Still got a couple more things...

Re: My first attempt at a Pixilla
Yes sirrrrr!
Never get sick of good Pixy mod!....same goes for Alphas!
They should come with a warning label on the box...
Just like tattoos....no matter how much it costs, or how much time they consume, once you get the first one, you just can’t stop!!!

Re: Alphas Line Guide swap - TDZ/Zillion
The OG Steez guide wont fit without oblonging the hole that the screw post goes thru, and still not certain that it would work without hitting the frame. The TDZ guide wont fit without the mods you mentioned. To grind down the tip of the TDZ line guide will mean going almost all the way thru to the...
