No prob on the joke, It has the standard red sides and it was a gift from Dad so as to what it cost I never asked. It was built at Kels Tackle in Orlando fla. I can find out more about it tomarrow when I get back from the coast. I live real close so if you want to take a look at it I can meet you somewhere this week. I bought a Trinidad tn 50 for my Grouper fishing trips back to Florida so I'll never use it, so once I find out what it cost I would give you a good deal. I also have a 4/0 senator that has been converted but it is on my buddies charter boat in La Push. kick ass halibut reel.
