I just finished this one up, for now anyway. I added the 7 disc carbontex drag upgrade, SV 105P line guide and cc cap, PXR high speed worm gear with bearing, SV105 drive shaft, SV103 drag star with clicker, 90mm Tatula handle with 4 bearings and old-school Daiwa Works silver aluminum knob plugs. It should serve its purpose of a finesse moving bait reel, mostly for light spinnerbaits & finesse swimjigs w/ paddletail trailers. It will sit on a 6-10ML Abu Villian 2.0 rod for now, till I find a more worthy partner.
Looks good! This build was totally you. Who needs all those fancy colors when there is grey and black! 😛
Excellent work, Tim! That faster worm gear should be the Schnitzola for laying down thinner/lighter braids.
The OG Silver Pixy, especially modded and in excellent condition is becoming a rare commodity nowadays, fosho.

Another beauty. For years…You’ve always delivered clean, classy builds, brother. Love it. I’m so partial to this reel. One of my all-time favorites.
