How come most manufacturers only offer aluminum reel seats in all silver, or all black, but not a combination of silver and black?
Most manufacturers have a gold/black combination available. With reel manufacturers like Avet, accurate, penn customs etc. offering silver as a color option it sure would be nice to have another choice in aluminum reel seats available. Anyone else feel my pain? Re: Black and silver aluminum reel seats

Jess, what size ID do you require? I have a beautiful seat as you describe with a black barrel, silver hoods and nuts. ID is.899 and OAL is 5.5 " It is a perfect boat rod seat. The black Diamond wood insert is .796" Black aluminum thread with the diamond wood insert already epoxied in place as well as the rear hood. Hope this helps. Re: Black and silver aluminum reel seats

Jess, I forgot to say that this seat has the heavy duty type hoods, and was made by Allen Putnam of Landmark. Allen made many beartiful reel seats from fly to off-shore, and had me evaluate and test most if not all of them. The black diamond wood insert is very nice. I have a few more of this type, but this is the only black and silver one. Re: Black and silver aluminum reel seats

No particular immediate size needed. If aftco ,alps, Amtak would offer silver black....no worries.
But to buy a silver and a black alps size 18 for $35 a piece would blow most budgets Re: Black and silver aluminum reel seats
