Tried it at DLX music in Tampere, it was pretty good. Nothing mindblowing, though.

It's a white strat with hotrails. It's pretty fuckin similar. If you buy it you're a BC fanboy who'd like to lick his bald dome.

When he had no hair was when they were rubbish. His hair was the talented member of the band.

Zwan - terrible terrible band. Read some stuff about them completely hating eachother for the majority of
the time they were together.

I should probably look into the later Pumpkins stuff to be honest...

why do they call it a '60's style headstock?' did 60's strats come with a headstock like that?

EDIT: aha, late 60's.

wrong!
this squier strat has a rosewood neck, b-c has a maple wich is way way better neck.
the pickups is way different to. on the squier guitar its a more muffled sound darker tones. the corgan has a three dimarzio pickups which two he designed himself.
the sqiuer dosent stay in tone as good as the corgan guitar.
and everything on these guitar is way way different to each other.
