1. How would you best clean rusty pickups on the F100? The poles and the seatings for poles are rusty. I know it might not make a difference to sound but I think it does to aesthetics.

G&L makes replacement metal knobs in the original style - I think earlier F100s used a knob that looked more like a knurled Telecaster - but is this what you want? Not sure if they would ship to Denmark, or if you’d need to go through a dealer.

Do you mean the neck is twisted, or that it’s mis-aligned? It’s absolutely worth getting looked at either way. A twist might often be clamped/heated out, and the luthier can ensure the neck is seated correct in the pocket if there’s an issue with alignment. Good luck
