I had spent quite some time with this guitar after getting it a week or so ago. After stretching the strings and tuning it up to pitch, I must say.. this guitar is quite fun to play. The neck is silky smooth and thin (usual Jackson) and the weight distribution is great. No neck dive at all. The stock Jackson High output pickups sound good, though I may change them later. The stock headstock tuners are okay, but, I do see myself replacing them with a set of Gotoh tuners in the future.
Other than that, this budget friendly axe is amazing. If you decide to get one, you will not be disappointed nor feel like it was money not well spent.
Thanks for reading.
Below is a short video of the guitar as I pan up and down and around it.
