It's been four years since my review of Patrick Sinegal's superb looking and even better sounding Reeltronix reels appeared in the pages of Positive Feedback. Patrick's Reeltronix reels--are light years beyond anything being currently built-- not to mention what has ever been available to the reel-to-reel enthusiast.

Patrick, sadly, discontinued production of his amazing Reeltronix reels a few years ago. But hope arises anew for those who missed out on Patrick's reels the first time around! Just this afternoon, Patrick sent me an email this afternoon announcing that he has after a year of consultation with Greg Beron of UHA, decided to reintroduce his Reeltronix reels. The new RT-001 Reeltronix reel might according to Patrick have, "some slight changes but nothing drastic." Patrick is still settling on the final design (I will post a picture as soon as one is available) but the new reels will have a new logo and come in two colors combined with a polished nickel finish. He is also considering producing a special, limited edition version or standard two tone black with yet a new logo.
To make this new run of reels (and beyond) financially viable, he needs to have orders for 60 reels. Patrick will start with an interest list and then require partial payment on orders. The new RT-001 reels will run 475.00 apiece; to keep the price down, Patrick will be doing everything himself save for the plating, machining and logo (in the end, this will save the customer more than $50 a reel due to mark ups.)
Patrick is also putting together a new website with more information about his reels.
So I suggest anyone interested in these reels drop Patrick an email at [email protected] to discuss purchase of these reels or post your interest online and I'll keep track of everyone. Personally, I can't think of anything better looking to dress up and put the finishing touches to my deck! For they are truly the Ferrari of the reels world.
