Having played an Explorer style before, it's as comfortable to play as my ESP model 6 string (I play sitting down). The stock sound is good enough for an entry level 7 string, especially with the heavier gauge strings on it. I used Ernie Ball 10-62's.
I would upgrade the tuners, nut, PuP's (either EMG 707's or something from Seymour Duncan) if I had the spare cash and really got into 7 strings. For me though, the pickups would be the first thing to pimp up just to get a fuller/nicer tone.
I hope this helps!
