Benplaysbass Posted August 17, 2011 Posted August 17, 2011 You might laugh but I bought this new from my mums club book back in 97. Its an Aria ProII and that's all it says, so I've never known what model it was. Just recently given it a refurb, and left it with an oiled finish. Put it back together yesterday with old strings and surprised myself at how bright and easy it is to play after the 'Thunderbird'.

Benplaysbass Posted August 17, 2011 Author Posted August 17, 2011 Hi Sprocketflup didn't realise you were on here. Thanks for that info, yes it is active. Just been messing about with it now and have to agree that it plays so nicely. Must be the thin neck after using the Thunderbird. Just seems a bit zingy to me, but could probably get used to that again. Quote
