OFFERS ARE VERY WIDE OPEN ON THIS ITEM. I don’t know the vintage fishing reel market so please feel welcome to send an offer for what it’s worth to you.


This is a collectors piece. Extremely rare and exceptionally complete mid-1980s Japanese Shimano Carbomatic SS6000 in unused original condition with original documentation and purchase receipt.


Featuring early composite technologies from Shimano:


• Titanium-Carbon construction

• “Power Triangle” structural design

• Carbon spool

• Original spare carbon spool included

• S.I.C. ceramic line roller

• Front drag

• one-touch handle design

• Silent anti-reverse

• Built-in ball bearing

• 15 kg manufacturer-rated fishing power

• 3.3:1 gear ratio

• 68 cm retrieve per handle revolution

• 560 g


The box does have damage but the contents are all in outstanding condition including original extra spool, storage bag and original purchase documents from 1985. This is an incredibly rare find for serious collectors of vintage fishing equipment.


I believe this is in outstanding condition for a pre-owned item, but please see my photos and judge for yourself.


YOU WILL RECEIVE THE EXACT ITEM PICTURED IN THE LISTING.
