Hey, real quick guys and gals,
There are Aria Mosrite copies on eBay for $260,
available in red and blue. I've been trying to
replace the Yamaha SGV that I sold at the beginning of
the year to buy my bass, but these look kinda cool as
well. I'm well aware that the Japanese copies are the
best and that the Wilson Bros. are the current value
item, but are the Aria's worth it at all?

Well I'll be darned. It looks like Aria is now competing with The Ventures.
Those guitars look very very much like the Wilson Bros VM65 or VM75. I don't
have either, but I'm sure what Gary said about the Wilson VM65 and VM75 will
apply to the Aria's as well.

Aria was making Mosrite copies before the Wilson Brothers. I
remember we talked about these guitars a long time ago, and they
were very expensive, high end models. Take a look at this message
from the archives:
If the Ebay guitars are the same as the ones mentioned above, then
that is a steal.

The current Ebay Aria's are not the same as the high end ones of the past few
years. The high end Arias are made in Japan, have a different vibrato assembly
and surrounds around the pick-ups as well as better materials all around. The
Arias seen in the recent Ebay auction are made in Korea.
These are the same distinctions that seperate the high-end VEM seriies Wilson
Bros models from the low priced VM series.
