    I checked out the 4600 c3 but could not find one with an aluminum frame. There may be a version I’m missing. I have seen tournament versions that have one piece aluminum frames.

    I have definitely enjoyed using this reel…just caught a little tarpon with it last week.

    Could be some type of version. I have a 5000 / 5500 / 6000 & 7000 all from the 70’s. Comparing this reel side by side not only is it narrower but the diameter is also a little smaller. This reel is also built with an aluminum frame…quite different from my other ambassadors.

    Thanks for advice. Sounds like a good idea.

    Very close. The side plates are the same and it is an all aluminum frame. Mine has a different thumb bar and is more narrow. On the bottom of reel seat it is stamped SAMPLE…so maybe it is a prototype. Thanks for your response. Let me know if you have any additional thoughts.

    The good news is that it was a Sweden model and better than the current Abu’s. What model is it and does it have a thumb button release or the button on the reel housing?

    The thumb button is over the spool. The model designation is pictured on the side.
