While I really like my Traveler (aka 2200), I like hook549 thought the 2200 had too many adjustments, and never picked one up. Personally I don't see the Regal as a reasonable substitute, although I have one and enjoy tying large flies on it. I would lean more towards the Traveler or spend a few more bucks and get a Presentation 4000. The 4000 is pricey, but it'll probably be the last vise you buy. Best of luck.
