Not in the slightest.
Gibson's using Richlite (resin impregnated paper) on some models.
I can grab random parts and assemble a Strat-oid and it should sound like a Strat, but it might not be the Strat tone I like. I very much believe in the sum of all parts concept. An alder and ash bodied Strat are different beasts and need parts that compliment the construction (mainly pickups - but have thrown fits before with bridges LOL).
Not discounting cardboard, I might like it.
