A straightforward Dreadnought guitar. With no cutaway, no reduction in size and not being an electro-acoustic it seems like a dinosaur. Maybe it is but it is probably the best one could find under two hundred pounds. This only cost me fifty-nine pounds which I found hard to believe when I tested it alongside some electros. Sure they had more frills but this feels so comfortable. The neck was not too thick or thin, body seemed quite solid. Most importantly on acoustics: good tuners.

A lovely sound. Mellow and rich. Better than many electros which tend to be tinny and weedy

I've used it a few times and put on various acoustic pickups. If I had a bad sound it was the pickups fault, not the guitar

If you only want one single guitar in your home this might not be an ovbious choice. However, if you want an acoustic guitar to sit alongside your electric and bass guitars this is a GREAT choice. I always thought Takamine make the best acoustics and they probably do but this comes pretty close. (Note: I've played a few other Arias and some are not as good as this one) And then there is the price. An absolute giveaway.

It is a really god starter guitar. smood playing. goo to jam or have fun with. I use it as my learning and jam guitar, and as emergency guitar on stage in case of something is wrong with one of my others. So if you seek a good cheap guitar to start with pick this one.
