Took some work, but a great guitar.
This guitar was unplayable out of the box. It could not be intonated as the bridge was too close to the fingerboard and the saddles could not travel back far enough, even with the springs removed. I moved the neck out 1/4", redrilled the neck holes and screwed the neck back on. Now it would intonate.
The neck had to be shimmed, the nut was cut too high (not unusual), the sharp fretboard edges were rolled, the sharp fret sprout filed, etc. Once set up, it played and felt great. The wire to the jack was wrapped around one terminal so I took it apart and ran the wire right.
The pickups sound pretty good. I replaced the chrome trem arm (which didn't fit the black theme) with an all black one.
