I just sent two brand new Core MG50's to have them "super tuned". Dood swore they'd perform almost as good as a Curado. :smokin:

tell ya what salty, i ran ceramic bearings in all my old green curados. the ydo have their benefits and their drawbacks.the ceramics have a lil "breakin" period where the balls get worn a lil and eventually break in. until they breakin is a lil inconvenient, cus ya can really feel em "grindin".once they are done with the breakin, lordy,lordy!!! casts and handles like a cadillac!!!!they are expensive and definitely worth it!! the more ya use em,the better they get:smokin:

Just talked to one of the reel gurus on 2cool and he told me don't waste my money trying to upgrade a brand new core. He said you cannot improve perfection. :eek: Oh, well. He said the ABEC5 bearings are better than ceramic.
