Thanks so much for the info guys! I'm looking to buy some of the Tour Edition PT reels with the new Burner gears (7.1:1) and two or three with the regular gears (6.3:1).

Sounds like Quantum makes some good quality stuff based on everyone's feedback!

Anyone ever use any of the rods? I'm looking at the Tour Edition PT rods, particularly the Kevin Van Dam and Gerald Swindle signature series rods - are they really that good of a rod?
