Title: Power Handles and Counter Balance Handles for AMB's

Hey Alan,

I'd like to put counter balance handles on a few of my older model AMB's, but most of the options available aren't very appealing aesthetically. Do you know anyone that makes custom handles? I also heard there are some Daiwa handles that fit ABU's - is that true?

I have been told that the daiwa millioniare 7htmag counter balanced power handle fits the abu ambassadeurs. This info came from PMR. You can find him on youtube doing a lot of part swap customizations between abus and akios. He also did some videos on the daiwa millionaires. From what I gather, the millionaires are very similar to the abus and akios. I haven't actually done it myself, so keep that in mind. Hopefully someone here may be able to actually verify this.

I know that the SLOSH handles fit my Abu 5500 and 6500 and 4600. The Daiwa SLX handle hole are the same size as the SLOSH just too thick for my Abu's.

Hope this helps,

Leo
