My Abu Garcia Revo SC from Cabelas arrived. Wow, very nice reel! Now, what shall I put under it?
Stratosdadri just scored the same reel for $69 after sale, coupon and rebate.
Guess who clips the coupons in THAT household,lol
Proof is in the bank though, what a deal.
Good luck with yours, great reels.
I noticed that ABU-Garcia does not list that reel on its Web site. Is it just a red Revo S made specially for Cabelas?
I've got my rebate form to send in as well. Picked up the Ambassadeur 5600CB at the same time, on sale, for $60.00. I thought that was a good price as well. I have a 7' MH Musky rod I'm going to mount it on.
I wonder if I can get 10 bucks off both reels?

That's my understanding.
yes, it is a High speed reel too I believe, which makes it different from the original in their line up
The difference between the Revo S and SC is the SC has mag breaks and it is high speed reel. Two features you don't get on a standard "S" model.
And it has a nice red finish and not the grey. What a great reel, especially for the money.

The more and more I see these threads, the more the bait monkey beats me over the head with a baseball bat. I tell myself no, and then I see another thread, and I'm that much closer to ordering one..
Mhmmm..
The devil made me order one. I fought him off as long as I could, but I am too weak.
For information on this reel check out this post.

THe brown truck is here, the brown truck is here, nice video clip from Cableas on the revo sc.

i hope mines come in by tomorrow, it shipped from PA to MD baltimore lol!
I hope it gets shipped back to delaware by tonight so it can be delievered by tomorrow!
I ordered mine last Friday. Brown pulled into the driveway Tuesday morning. I actually wasn't expecting it that quickly.
Quoteim dirt poor and the devil also made me order one as well
We call that devil the "Bait Monkey".
I got mine yesterday. I ordered some jigs from BPS 10 minutes before I ordered my reels and I still haven't seen the jigs. lol If Cabelas always ships that fast I won't be going back to Bass Pro again.
I ordered mine on Friday afternoon and they were at the door on Tuesday. Amazingly fast. 8-)
I ordered mine on Sunday and got them this afernoon.
I think I'm going to sleep with them tonight.
You jackasses made me buy two of them..... ;D
woohoo.. I got my reels, but how the heck can you take the side plate off to oil the spool bearings if ya wanted to? ;D :
Looks like it is probably disassembled from the handle side. But I don't know for sure. The oiling diagram could be a tad more specific.
Quotewoohoo.. I got my reels, but how the heck can you take the side plate off to oil the spool bearings if ya wanted to? ;D :
On the top of the handle end plate is a large screw. Unscrew that and the side plate can be pivoted off.

Ah! Thanks guys. This place rocks.
god I wish they had a leftie version :'(
wow, i got this friday, went fishing with it for 2 days
beautiful. Noob becoming pro in baitcastin! Im casting so much further my revo S reel. It's much smoother. Only thing is that it backlash further. I don't mind since the more backlash i'll get, the more i have to concentrate on practicing thumbing anyway.
I am going to have to take apart my revo S, clean it up, and re lube it to give it another chance. It might just need some lubing since i started out practicing with it for about 2 weeks before i have gotten the SC. But the SC is NICE ^^
and ditto about cabelas shipping fast. BPS is not bad too, but i got this in 3 days! <3
I have a love hate relationship with bassresource.com
I have alot more stuff and look like I know what I'm doing, but I find that I have nary a pot to P**s in nor a window to throw it from the longer I stay on this site.
After this thread I bought an SC, and then just had to get an SX the same day. The two best reels I've ever purchased. The best before that was a browning midas. Still a good reel, but the Abu's have just the right size to fish with all day.
