Check out the Pickup Winding thread where I posted a YouTube link to a DIY winder. Super simple to build and not very expensive.
Yeh Ricks are certainly polarising. I've just started drawing another guitar in Illustrator for a future build. What do you think about one of these for the collection https://www.gretschguitars.com/gear/...jet/2411916821
To be honest I also wouldn't mind have one of your Deluxesters in my collection because I really dig the shape, particularly the headstock.
In regards to the Sea Foam Green, maybe we need a Sea Foam Green appreciation thread specially for Frankie haha.
