I have seen zero "When? When? When?" So...

Do you think it is worth sending in our Reo Grands to get the Stainless Steel 510 Connector installed?

Well. I'll be sending mine in... and I'll be delaying my plan for my next new one until the new connectors are standard equipment. -- In fact, it might even mean I delay sending in my VV Woodville for the spa treatment a little longer.

 

[Tony Spectacular]

Perfect! LP\SO woods with upgraded 510! Doesn't get any better than that!

Yeah...definitely read this as LP/SL (since the one usually follows the other).

SL Woody? Wha?

Brain exploded for a moment, then my eyes slapped it back into line.

I'll still be giggling a little picturing a SL Woody for a while now.

I read it the same way at first

Gee wiz, wear out the old one first; good chance it will never be needed.

I totally agree no need to fix something that isn't broke

Yeah... but what if I crushed the gasket on all 4 of my REO's on the same day.

 

[ElConquistador]

After the first two, go easier.

Has to be done on purpose methinks [emoji5] but seriously, from my newbie days I had my rm2 so tight I needed a pliers to remove it. No apparent damage.

That would put you in the running for "Hoople of the Year" award

 

[Newportlocal]

Correct no gaskets and its the number one reason I did this .

This will be excellent! Just quoting to keep this thread in my feed. Looking forward to this.

 

[supertrunker]

How will it affect the rebuild kits?

I will keep the classic kits around and make a new kit for the new system . The new kits wont have gaskets or center posts there wont be a need for it

Rob do you think by December you'll be ready? I plan to order 2 SL/LP Grands in December but I certainly want the new SS 510's

It will be 6 to 8 weeks is a best guess

 

[CaptSteve]

Thanks Rob appreciate it

 

[Tangaroav]

What will this upgrade do ? Will we be able to retrofit our units ?

edit: Oups, I got ALL the answers just by reading this thread.... sorry.

 

[thewomenfolk]

Will the new SS stuff fit okay with my new SL brass Reo Mini without the colors clashing?

It'd be covered by the atty, so you're good... except for the brass reo part (you sneaky, sneaky girl)

 

[Filthy-Beast]

I think it will look great in your brass Reo,

 

[thewomenfolk]

Thanks FB.

And as for you Papa, you should know I come from a long line of sneaky girls.
