As a compromise to warmoth, think about a carvin bolt kit...there are quite a few options you can add. I never had the full kit but I slapped a maple neck w/birdseye fingerboard on to my cheapo strat clone and its been my number one player for 2 years now.
I have been drooling over Warmoth stuff lately though. My options would be:
swamp ash body
reverse headstock CBS neck (vintage pro) - birdseye maple
reverse angle black pearloid pickguard
I would probably use a purple wood stain and tung oil finish on the body
