On the subject of signature guitars I reckon a John Frusciante model is overdue.

There is an "unofficial" Edwards Frusciante model:

Good spot Philly, cheers  :) Not sure about that spelling of Frusciante though  :o

You can't beat a nice chicken friscante washed down with a glass of chilled.... friscante(?).  :?
BKPs I've Got:  RR, BKP-91, ITs, VHII, CS set, Emeralds
BKPs I Had:  RY+Abraxas, Crawlers, BD+SM

I owned one of those Edwards Frusciante models for a week. Two thumbs down.... :( Mainly because of the small frets, but also because I was holding it up to ESP quality standards.
BKPs (soon): CS, TS.
Ex-BKPs: Abrax, NB, SM, PK, Mule, WP.

Are you sure? The guitar in the pic has absolutely massive frets!
LOVING the Mules!

As much as I love Corgan's old tones, if it's made for him to sound like the new record's guitars, I'm not interested. what happened to his tone? where did all the gritty, buzzsaw gain go?
