I thought I'd have to change the nut out for a Graphtech, but the factory nut actually was cut very well, and the action measured at the 2nd fret was just what it should be for my preferred 9-46 Hybrid Slinkies. It took a few turns of the truss rod to reduce the neck relief to an acceptable level, which is expected. I personally just cut off a few strings in the middle and measure at the high and low E, then change the whole set. After doing this I noticed action wasn't unusually high, but full note bends across the neck were still possible, which to me means the saddles were set up quite well and there were no high frets. I'll be returning the Graphtech that I assumed would be required.
I'm not sure why they chose a black pickguard for the maple neck model. With the lightness of the neck and the burst gradually getting lighter towards the center of the body, my eye expects it to be lightest in the very middle. I made it so with an aged white pearl pickguard from Kaish and I think it works better. I think the white plastic pickup covers and knobs still are close enough to aged white pearl to not look out of place.
The jack was probably the weakest part of the entire guitar. My cable constantly slipped out no matter how hard I plugged it in. Fortunately, I happened to have a puretone jack that grips your cable with 4 different prongs, so I popped it in as part of my pickguard swap... though I did have to drill a tiny groove out of the inside jack cavity to make room for the tip. But once I did that it stayed put.
The tuners are absolutely fine, but I did upgrade to staggered Fender locking tuners, which are a drop in replacement with the same two little grooves for each tuner in lieu of screws. I just put them on and am expecting they will hold tune better when using the tremolo.
So this guitar goes as low as $600 on sale, and for that price you get a hopefully excellent maple neck, very acceptable electronics and pickups, and a flame maple finish, albeit a subtle one. There are many different types of replacements that could work in my mind, if you agree that a lighter pickguard works better. Parchment, White, White Pearl or Aged Pearl are all good options in my mind. Be prepared to adjust a few things, but the a playable neck, was what I cared about most, because you're touching that the most, and that's certainly what I got.
So if you're as lucky as I was, no changes to the default nut or frets will be necessary to start playing, just fresh strings and a few turns of the truss rod. Maybe have a decent input jack handy just in case, though?

Pros: despite the poor QC, the neck is straight, the paint job is excellent and the single coils sound pretty good. So yes I am pleased with it now.
