Bassassin Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 Aria reissued their old Mosrite types a few years back, 34" scale, fitted with J type pickups & under their old Aria Diamond label: Interesting to see this new one's a closer reissue, 'correct' shortscale and more accurate looking pickups. As a vintage MIJ nerd I am amused by the use of a Univox-style font for the logo - the Univox-labelled Hi-Fliers are somewhat more sought-after than the old Arias! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It reminds me of the one Entwistle played for about a week in the 60s. The Youtube clips are very promising, lots of filthy growl and rattle!
