The electronics are actually really good for a Japanese guitar. All I have to compare is an early 2000s Jag, but I've heard a lot of negative about Japanese electronics. I'm still probably going to swap out the pickups with something like Lollar Black Bobbins or Antiquities, but the stock pickups are actually not that bright at all. Which might have something to do with the following...
The only gripes I have with the guitar is that the bridge is pretty freaking high... I'm going to guess that they angle the neck pocket on these guitars like the new American models and it's a bit much. I've got a mastery waiting to be put on and I'm a bit worried about how this is going to work out. It might actually need a reverse shim. The other thing is the trem. This boy is tight! Once you put the bar in, it won't move from where you put it, but it's also very close to the pick guard for my taste. There's not a lot of room for downward movement.
That being said, I think I'm in love! Just need to decide on a set of pickups of it and probably a trem now, but boy she's pretty. Here's some pics, look at the grain!
