HISTORY:
The Mag2 reel info came out in 2010, but we have never seen an actual reel. The Squall SQL12 and SQL15 series came out in 2011. It is a U.K./Europe only release and was not made available here in the U.S., except as a relabeled version called Squall, models SQL12 and SQL15. The parts appear to be identical except for the labels.
Name/Series: GS Mag2 Graphite Series
Construction:
- A forged and machined aluminium spool sits on a 'live' spindle which allows it to 'free float' for reduced drag and increased performance.
- The spool is controlled by the all new patented adjustable magnetic brake which is adjusted by a dial on the left hand sideplate.
- The frame and sideplates are made from lightweight but strong graphite.
- The powerful 6 : 1 retrieve is provided by a large, high strength, marine grade, bronze, main gear which drives the stainless steel pinion gear
- The drag is an all new patented Versa-Drag system which uses HT-100 washers and has a poitive 'click' adjustment for precise control
- 6 shielded stainless steel ball bearings and anti reverse help ensure that everything runs smoothly.
