Made in Korea. Bought in Italy in Aug 1995, something like US$200.
A nice, dreadnought acoustic guitar. Mahogany neck, rosewood fretboard, solid top.
No electronic nor pickups - but a pretty loud sound. No accessories.
I would like it to have a more comfortable neck such as Yamahas.
Sound
:
No Opinion
Sound is very nice,loud and clear.
I used other entry level acoustic guitars such as Yamaha and Ibanez, but their sound was not as good as my Aria.
Action, Fit, & Finish

The action was too high - I had to set it up to find a better playability, and now it's okay.
I think it's a normal thing on a brand new korea-made guitar.

It seems to be a well done instrument.
One only failure in 8 years, but it was my fault: I left it in my car parked in a very hot day. When I came bak, the fretboard was unglued from the neck. A liuther fixed it in a few minutes and he charged me 10 euro for that.

I wrote an email to Aria usa one year ago, to ask information about my gear - but they didn't answer. Pity.

I've been playing it from 1995.
I used to play a Musima Strato-like, too, before I purchased my Aria. I tried lots of acoustic guitars, that day. It was the only fitted my needs.
Last year I was given a brand new Fender Strato Standard (Mexico), but I still play my Aria.

Very very nice tone for its price. I have lots of friends who play guitar and also agree on the tone. Bright and versatile with good harmonics.

Plays like a dream. Very nice feel. Good construction, though tricky truss-rod (jumps a bit when adjusting)

Very versatiile and robust. Its my workhorse guitar and has survived travelling, bumbs, knocks, scratches, the works!
