Bought recently because I’ve always wanted one. 


It came coated in dust and standing dirt with mucky strings. Took 2 hours of full disassembly and fret polish/oiled fingerboard/polish/clean...

Just came at the wrong time and I absolutely don’t want to do it.

I listed my Sadowsky and got a b*llocking off Everyone...the sale of that would’ve cleared everything. But that’s my baby.

so I have to shift other stuff...

Fuming...I might change my mind on this as I’ve never been so chuffed with a “budget” purchase...apart from my orange BB (yes, that one).

Anyhow - mid 1990’s Korean - possibly a prototype but that’s conjecture from a US Aria distributor.

Aria branded pickups, vol/tone/selector switch.

Ash Body, maple 3 piece 24 fret neck with rosewood fingerboard. Nice angled headstock.

Condition for age is mental - really clean, just a couple of light marks.

Still has the plastic sheets on the back of the machine heads.

Decent weight - is just under 9lbs.

mad tort pickguard.

Low action. Really playable...writing this and already thinking I’m stupid for this...

Anyhow, a choice of 2 ratty gigbags - whichever suits.

can ship, probably £35 insured in the UK.

Collection Manchester (Swinton) would be best.

That’s actually a bit rare (unlike most of the rare things posted on eBay these days)

These were in 5 and 6 string versions fretted and fretless

Not seen this  Avante 4 string fretted version previously .

...Typical Quality build from Aria type Bump!
