R-446 Blood Metallic : Very good

Packaging was a problem as the box the guitar was in, was rather small an not taped secure. This resulted in an open inner box and the pointy part of the headstock hitting and punching through the outer box. So when delivered to me the tip was smashed. Anyhow it doesn' affect the guitar which for my needs is very good. Very good construction for neck frets and body painting. I like the thin neck and flat fretboard. The fretboard was dry though and frets need to be polished. I like that the parts cavity has graphite (?) paint and clean wiring. Pots/knobs work fine. Action was high, but setting it low and fixing intonation was easy so bridge is good. I like the pickups. Playability is very good in my opinion. Tuners seem to work ok so far but if something is to be changed will be the tuners and nut.
