a friend of mine who is a avid lover of penns has the new 525 - he doesnt rate it as highly as the supermag extra of the original batch. Says it performs much the same, but hasnt got that heavy quality feel of the USA made ones.My Weapons of Choice
RODS:
Shimano Aspire 130 AX Surf , Shimano Aspire 140 AX Surf, Reelsport Responce ,Team Daiwa TDXS 130XM for the rough, Shakespear Ugly Stick Gold 7ft Spinning
REELS:
Shimano Speedmaster CFS IV x3 , Abu 7500 C3CT Blue x 2, Abu 7500 CT Elite, Penn 970 mono mag for the rough, Shimano 4000 Exage for Spinning

hunted 1 out at the weekend jimmy mate thier is a few new added features to these reels much lighter than the old 1,s that are really good for precise tuning but the build quality in my opinion is just not thier still performs well though time will tell if they are as good as the old 1,s [which will take some beating but you pay your money and take your chance like anything hope you get sorted mate.Rodbuilding & rod repairs
