Quick Finessa

[happyhooker]

Again, a nice post from a great AT member.

If I remember right (and Fred or other members would probably know for sure), even the reels like the 220 and 330 (not the "Ns") were considered part of the "Finessa" series; it was just that the later models said "220" or whatever and didn't mention "Finessa" like the earlier ones did.

0s, 1s, Ns, Ps and XLs were all also considered the Finessa family. ..00s, ..01s, ..02s & Royal M-D-Ss did not carry the Finessa designation.

One thing I love about the early Finessa is the 4 screw , completely detachable sideplates on both sides.
I have an early 330 on the way which has these plates. Just like my 285.
These plates make working on the reel easier and in my opinion, that rear screw helps seal the side plate better.
I wish my 3001 reels had that rear screw.
