I'm liking that ice blue color.  If it was me, I would consider an all Silver reel, and a christmas.. green and red model.  Lots of options.

John, Trying to find two more sets of Ted's silver plates....

Sal, I guess that answers the control thing...that ship has sailed but the 400 passengers all got their own rods!!! :)

Thanks folks! The full gold Accurate 113W in the centre was my first hotrod; I guess about fifteen years ago. I didn't know it was called that but I put every goody I knew about at the time in, including 4:1 Accurate SS gear set and recently carbontex. I suppose I'll get around to ordering a batch of SS sleeves one day to make these all they can be. Gotta get the handles right first though. The other two wides are Newell Framed and spooled with steel gears. Had them on stock plates since I bought them $50 each when fleabay first came on line. Accuplates courtesy of Mr. Pauly last year.
