Think it would look grungy as hell flipped to lefty

it took him a couple of weeks and he actually had to reforward and email he had already reforwarded once! You can tell by reading it that he tried to send it 3 times before I got it on the fourth! He has been having issues with his email.

Update! - Worked out the payments with Jon via email last night. This is now happening

Someone's facebook status yesterday was - 'why do people hold up banners for Stevie Wonder?' Made me chuckle a bit.

Would you say they were as good as a US Standard throwoff?[/quote] I would but then I have a massive soft spot for Japanese and Korean built instruments. Hopefully come into UK soon and people can get playing them. A collegue of mine who runs stuff in China for us knows the guys through a friend in another factory and he got quite a bit of advance info and said they are really incredibly built!

I am bumping this because I have noticed in the last few weeks a LOT of big European stores begin to show these as on stock.

I don't think he plays much on the new record which is a bit disapointing although he already said the next record will be back to basics Plan B. As far as I'm concerned he has never recorded a bad song!

I bloody love BC sometimes! Thanks!

Really cannot work it out...

TU 2 for me! and always will be!

This has reminded me of a funny little gigging story. Guitarist in my band bought a Marshall Half Stack (TSL 60 head and Cab) and for the first gig we were using it (all day outdoor affair) he let a friend of ours use it with his band even though they were playing first because he was considering buying one/was a very close friend/very knowledgable gigging musician who knew how to care for gear. Anyway soundcheck went cool they go on as first band and the amp is feeding back constantly (guitarist using a tele with singles up loud on a small stage!). In the end my brother runs on stage turns the presence right down (it had been knocked at some point it seems between check and gig not altered by the guitarist) and everything is fine and dandy. Just after they finish the last song myself and my guitarist are accosted by the 'band manager' AKA the drummer and singers dad and threatened with violence for breaking the amp to make their sound bad..... Logic just doesn't appear in some peoples minds! We broke our amp which was a week old and cost over a grand BEFORE we needed to use it for our set to make a good friend's guitar sound bad... riiight. From then on we NEVER lent anything to anyone even friends.

Not gonna be able to try before I buy I don't think but for 150 might be worth a cheeky punt. Sure I can make that back on it if need be.

Dear me! Would need to have a really good look at it in person but if it is totally legit (nothing indicates to me it's not) then it must be one of the best out there.

Aria are not a hugely desirable brand to many musicians, ergo a high quality, desirable (to the right people/people in the know) instrument but with a brand name which is seen by many as less desirable is a wolf in sheep's clothing. Anyway as I said thank you for the proper advice, I am a total Aria no-nothing but I feel that was a tad uncalled for.

I thought I was quite clear but oh well!! I have no clue about Arias except that some people really rate certain ones and others not so much! Is this one of the models that is any good? What years are the good ones?
