The action felt good without much adjustments, the intonation was not perfect, but adjustable, the sound, is not the perfect either, it has no locking tuners, the strings it comes with had to go immediately. And the nut is not good either, overall the whole thing is a pain to tune compared to my more expensive guitars and not really tuning stable for more than a few songs at least.
But despite all those flaws, that guitar has mojo, the neck feels great, the guitar feels great and it's a joy to play. I am pretty sure that I should change the pickups, add locking tuners one day and would love this guitar even more, but even with the stock setup it is a dirt cheap, affordable guitar that works perfectly well with drop D right out of the box.
If only the strings would not feel like someone made them out of chain-wire fencing leftovers. But well, that's a cheap and easy replacement.
I recommend ordering strings, graph tech nut and maybe even a set of tuners right away with it.
But even if you shy away from upgrades, it still plays really well and is a pretty amazing metal guitar for it's low price point.
So overall 4/5, would buy again, despite all the normal metric just being ok. Super fun guitar with a surprisingly good finish.
