It's a metal beast
The guitar was very well packaged and came out of the box in a very playable condition.
I have the BareKnuckle aftermath set in my 6string LTD and in this guitar they sound even better. They sound very resonant, hot, quite punchy but also very clear and articulate. Even if there is no tone know there is quite a lot of sound options with the coil-split and when you engage it you can really get that spanky fenderesque single coil feeling and in all 3 positions the sound is quite different, interesting and unique.
The guitar has some pretty clean sounds as well that are very nice and chimey sound. But don't be mistaken when a drive is engaged it just makes you play metal, at least in my case, just makes you want to chug and play modern progy riffs. And it sounds brutal!
After the unpacking i just retuned the guitar to e-standard (drop-A). The intonation was spot on, and there were no sharp frets. The guitar is beautiful and plays great. There is a neck dive, the paint/finish is weird on some parts and some parts are not quite smooth. When i roll the volume know i can hear the crackling sound that makes it kinda unusable to clean up the sound on or to play with it while playing. Small things that don't impact the playing and enjoying the guitar but kind of when you look at it a little bit as a nitpick is anoying especially the volume know sound when using. That's why i gave it 4 stars for quality.
Otherwise for my 1st 7string i'm very happy with it, an awesome instrument.
