Great guitar for clean tones to AC/DC, Metallica, and Iron Maiden tones.
Great guitar with a Floyd Rose tremolo and hot Jackson humbucker. Also, has single coil pickups that make this sound just like a Fender Strat. This is basically a fender Stratocaster with a Floyd Rose and a high distortion humbucker. This guitar works for anything from clean, country, blues, rock, and metal music. Feels good, plays well, and I did not need to set it up or adjust the truss rod. Just needed to tune and is just because the the strings are always de-tuned when you ship any guitar. Was very well packaged also. I cursed the 5 minutes it took to unpack this. A little heavy but I like the weight of the basswood body. I only had this guitar for a few days now and I planned to hot rod it or change out anything that I do not like. So far, realizing this has passive pickups, I have not found anything I need to change or upgrade. If you want nu metal than just install a Seymour Duncan Super Distortion in the bridge position. Everything and more than I expected for a guitar to play Metallica and slayer and sound great clean for under $500.00.

Solid guitar
The truthful answer to each question was "yes"... and "no". -Does it have a good pickup? Yes... ish. It is hotter than most stock pickups, to be sure and has a decent sound. But the low end is a bit mushy, and the high E is "plinky" and weak sounding. It does not "sing". But I figure a quick replacement with the Dimarzio Super Distortion that the high end version comes with is easily enough done. Is it fun to play? Does it have a good feel"? Yes-ish. The action was a bit higher than I expected for a guitar touted as a sleek soloing machine. This is very subjective I understand. I could see from the word go it was too high, so I used the included allen wrench to drop both sides a full turn. A quick retune, and I was back in business. The fine tuners on the Floyd license work very smooth and bar itself has just enough slack at full tight to not get in the way. I would have loved this guitar in a fixed bridge, either string-thru or tunematic-type, but that isn't offered. Either way it is solid. Unison bends do not go out of tune, nor does light palm muting pull it sharp. And although I am not given to crazy whammy antics, it held tune perfectly even after a few dive bombs, and pinched harmonic screams pulled high. The neck has a semi-satin finish that felt very nice. Again personal preference, but I do not like a heavily varnished neck. All in all, for the money paid I would recommend it. A quick set-up to preference, and possible pickup upgrade and it's a nice machine!

Disappointing
I bought 4 Chinese Harley Bentons, an esp and this Jackson... the Jackson is the only one still sitting on the work bench.. ..disappointing to say the least. The glue from the plastic protecting both backplates stayed on and they both had to be replaced. Frets need to be leveled and crowned..
