The Shimano Calcutta 200 GTB is the only reel in the line with the Lo-Mass Drilled Spool for anglers who prefer the option of a longer casting reel.  The 200 GTB is also the only reel in the line to feature 7 A-RB (Anti-Rust) Bearings and 1 Roller Bearing to maintian a smooth functioning system even during the heat of battle with big fish.  The Variable Brake System uses inertia instead of magnets to aid in, and control casting.  Like the other reels in the line, the 200 GTB is constructed of Cold Forged Aluminum with the Septon Handle Grips, which do not get slippery when wet so you don't lose your grip when things get tough.

Shimano warrants to the original purchaser that this product will be free from non-conformities in material or workmanship for the period of one year from the date of purchase.  To request repairs (or non-warranty service) send your reel, postage pre-paid, to the Shimano Authorized Warranty Center nearest you. Retailers and wholesale outlets are not required or authorized to perform warranty repairs or exchanges on behalf of Shimano. If sending your reel to Shimano directly, please call for verification on due date as some seasons experience high volume.  All warranty requests must be accompanied by a dated sales receipt, your name, address, telephone number (daytime), email address (optional), and a brief description of the issues related to your warranty request.
