    Here is my first Warmoth project. It is meant to be a replica of a Billy Corgan Stratocaster. I didn't want to spend the big price tag on a real one, so I decided to make a replica, lol. I ended up spending more on this than the real thing costs, but the warmoth is way cooler and sounds better.  :guitaristgif: Here is the real one

definitely cooler than the original! very very nice, that thing looks pretty damn sweet.
 
Much fancier than the original :)
Also less punk rock, which makes it more visually rounded. I should think it's easier to join a jazz band with this version ;)
Very good looking maple top  :icon_thumright:

Very nice!. The best part is you ended up with a one of kind personal interpretation of something you like.  :hello2:

That sure is a nice fingerboard. Hardtails rule!
 
Yay for more hardtails! Yours is way nicer than the original, congrats, hopefully you will learn some better music than smashing pumpkins on it!  :icon_jokercolor: :icon_jokercolor: :icon_jokercolor:
 
There's no way with what you've spent, that you could get that out of Fender.  Maybe for 5K out of the Custom Shop.

Nice axe!  :icon_thumright:
 
That looks great. I'm surprised you didn't want abalone inlays, but that's me. Not sure if it's a replica, maybe a tribute/inspired by.
 
Hell yeah! Beats the Fender model by a long mile! Fine choice of woods on that one...esp that flamey neck.  :eek:ccasion14:
 
Wow, I was looking at the pictures again, and that's one great fretboard! Have you oiled it up yet? Nice touch on the tuners, also.

Easy Max.  This is territory was covered with Jaco and Gilmour already.

Well, regardless of if it's a dead on copy this is one bad ass guitar that anyone would be proud to own.
