The 3 reels in the pic belong to me 8) they were the 1st off the pete's production line nearly a year ago, the 5000 is the only one in circulation and only a half dozen 6500's were released too, the 6600W's were mainly what people wanted and there are 20 or so spread all over the world as far as Australia/USA.
They are truly excelent reels, they sit so low on the blank hence providing excellent spool grip, they are the best casting reels produced IMO and have helped me to some new PB's.
I spoke to pete only yesterday and he was telling me he will have some more to be released soon and a price of only £160 they are a steal considering the amount of work and time he has put in on them.

As one of the proud owners of the PTEC 6600W I to can safely sing their praise as a fantastic tournament reel that deliver distances when used correctly. The set up by Peter is excellent and the smoothness of the reel is a pleasure to feel and use.

Looking forward to getting my hands on one of the 5500 sizes when they are available.
