I've had two. All good but the aesthetics dont please everyone.
Just to note, the later models were Korean.

yeah it looks kind of like a PRS except without all the tacky flame maples and inlays and crap. so like 100000 times better.

Concerning PRS, Aria have been making solid bodies since 1974 and the ones Westy posted are at least early 80's models. So what should be said here is PRS look like some old Aria's.
Again, always the aesthetic, as far as playability and sound goes you can't fault them.
