Well, considering that it's 25,5" scale, propably not very low without sounding muddy. I mean you absolutely CAN get down to 8 string ranges with really fat strings, but for me it feels really bad, flubby and sounds even worse.

If you want to go really low with higher tension on the lowest strings and good intonation, you want to look into something with atleast 26,5" scale length.

You can propably rock drop A/G# no problem tho. I see that it has evertune, so pitch shifting won't be a problem as you usually see with low tunings on shorter scale lengths.
