not too sure which u're referring to, aria pro II or just aria, but aria-usa seems to make pretty good guitars. well built, rather good tone. only dissatisfaction is the tuners, they don't quite hold tunings well. aside from that, quite worth the dough u're forking out for em. plus, i think they beat other guitars from that price-range, and some above them besides.

p.s. i owned a aria fat strat. now its been split apart for parts in two guitars lol.

its a music/sport shop if i recall correctly.

If I'm not wrong, old Aria Pro II guitars are sought after by collectors because they have top-notch workmanship, while the newer guitars under the Aria brand, while respectable, fall mainly under the budget category and are generally made in China, while there's also the Aria-USA branch.

IMO I'd rank the quality of their guitars in this order :
Aria Pro 2 (the old ones) > Aria-USA > Aria

urm aria pro II and aria-usa are different. not too long ago, i heard from mikemann that aria pro IIs are manufactured in the same factory as J&D brother's guitar, but sold for more. aria pro II used to be a jap copy brand, and if im not wrong, Yngwie Malmsteen even endorsed them for a short period of time lol.
