Smashing Pumpkins’ leader Billy Corgan had developed his own guitar model specifically designed for Fender. Practically, Corgan’s guitar represents another version of the legendary Fender Stratocaster, and includes unsignificant differences from the original type, says Aversion.
This guitar is made for “the modern powerful sounds”, incorporating three DiMarzio sound receivers (two of them were made for this guitar only), and special bridge which lets strings go through itself, not on top of it like everywhere else. This guitar should look exclusively black or white.
The original Fender Stratocaster was first designed back in 1954. An instrument “saw” almost every rock musician in the history of music since mid-1950’s, and still remains to be very popular.
