This is a question I ask myself as I fish with my Shimano Calcutta Conquest SE.  While I love my Ambassaduer 2500Cs, this Conquest SE has found a special place in my heart.  It’s quite capable across the spectrum, even in factory form.  While the spool weighs a whole 15g,

These are the NMB stainless bearings we carry in action. Each one is prepped prior to shipment at no additional cost. Here they are on an Ambassadeur 6500CT owned by Andrew Nielsen.
