Anyone have any experience with these guys regarding reel cleaning and upgrades?

Thanks for the time.

No, but he's been extremely courteous and continuously posts trying to help out others. No doubt that translates into his actual work as well.

Agreed. I'm planning on sending a few reels his way this winter.

DVT serviced my chr. 50mg, added new spool bearings,  new cast controll washers and carbontex drag washers. I thought they did a excellent job and in a timely manner also!!

From what I've heard, his servicing is top notch.  As much as DVT participates on the forums, he'd have a hard time sticking around if he did crap work.

Sounds exactly like what I want on my ch50's.  Would you mind if I asked you what it cost for all that?

Our standard Clean/Lube/Inspect Service is $16.20 ($18-10%) + shipping

Parts are 10% off retail

I'm happy to provide a full quote to anyone with no obligation. Just email or pm reel make & model and what you'd like done.

I would highly recommend Mike at DVT. I recently had him build my first custom rod and service two of my reels. He took the time to work with me as well as educate me on the process and what to look for in my rod. His communication and customer support is to be applauded.

By the way, my new custom micro-guide St. Croix looks awesome. Unfortunately, it took me all season to save up for it and now I have to wait until spring to give it a good workout.

Whets

I would have replied sooner,  but haven't been online for awhile.  If I remember correctly it was in the $60 range.  Not bad considering the bearings are $30 retail and the carbontex are like $10.  I'm normally a do it yourself guy w/ a lot of things,  but I'd rather not risk screwing up a expensive reel.  DVT will get more business from me this winter.

thanks a lot.  Sounds like you're a lot like me when it comes to the do-it-yourself thing.  I agree completely about not wanting to mess up an expensive reel.
