Happy to be corrected, but I think with the early 90s black/silver/pro max reels the 6600CLW is C= bearings, L = levelwind & W= wide. The 6600 is the only size with a wide version.

A quick question for all of you Ambassadeur experts about nomenclature: What do the letters "AL" designate i.e. 4600AL?

Thanks

Tom

Small Arbor Spool -- More line capacity

Level-Wind Reel

If I am wrong -- someone please correct -- Thanks.

There are ten reasons to consider when choosing your next fishing reel.

The first is to pick a reel you like — The other nine reasons don’t matter.

Thanks, Fred! I thought about that too, but I also thought it would be redundant the label a 4600 reel as having a level wind when, at least to my knowledge, they never made a conventional reel in that size.
