Aria AD-80 Dreadnought Acoustic Guitar Review

I bought my Aria AD-80 on eBay 5 years ago and although I knew I was getting a "nice" guitar by the spec sheet I never imagined what a beautiful, collectable instrument I was actually getting. The guitar was alright out of the box but sounded a little commpressed and flat to me as well as needing the normal new guitar set up. The look was no disappointment at all though! What a beauty! The MOP inlays are sweet without being gaudy and the back and side woods are as nice as any Martin I've ever seen (speaking of Martin this is a D45 copy, I believe, and you would be hard pressed to tell the difference blindfolded). The solid spruce top may be a bit plain but, with the abalone inlay around the sound hole and the entire binding of the guitar, it just sparkles. The gold tuners not only look rich and fit the look of the guitar, but they work perfectly. After about six months of playing the guitar I noticed one day that it was just coming alive and the sound opened up adding bass, treble and a ton of dynamic range! It sounded so good that I have done some upgrades to it because I intend on keeping this one. I had a K & K pickup added (a three transducer system that sounds awesome) and I replaced the original string retainer pins with solid brass "Tone Pins" with abalone inlay that increase the amount of sound the string transfers to the bridge and then the sound board and just add to the good looks. You cannot find another guitar in this price range that can compare! BTW - I paid $550.00 for mine and am not surprised at the price they go for now.

Aria MM-10 Gypsy Jazz Acoustic Guitar Review

Buying a guitar online without first playing it is sometimes viewed by many as being very risky. On the other hand, when a musician decides to purchase a guitar from a manufacturer that has been in the business for very many years, more often than not their products are first class.Strong competition from other guitar makers in respect of quality and affordability forces companies to pursue product excellence. Aria is such a company. I wish to congratulate Aria for a fine work of art and craftmanship in their Gypsy Jazz Guitar MM-10. I play mostly jazz and have owned, played and experimented with all kinds of acoustic guitars in search for a jazz tone, volumne, finger board playability and overall balance and projection.I have found these attributes in the Aria MM-10 Gypsy Jazz Acoustic. I examined the guitar very thoroughly when it was delivered to my home,and have found no manufacturer's defects.The action was just right out of the box. The guitar holds the tuning very well.I used this guitar in jam sessions with my friends who own expensive acoustics, but they could not drown me out when it comes to volumne. It is also great for finger style playing and feels like a nylon acoustic.It came with argentine strings. I am so impressed with this guitar that I am contemplating purchasing their parlor guitar model A19C-200S without even playing it first, if it is available at Amazon at a very affordable price.
You can't go wrong in purchasing the Aria MM-10 Gypsy Jazz Acoustic with such great craftmanship and affordability.
