El-cheapo (2)


Another bottom feeder acquisition ($45) but I must say this one was in a more desirable condition than the last, especially so when the fret board is wood, not some synthetic substitute. I've played Aria acoustics before, I trust their craftsmanship at this price point. The stickers are there to cover some light dents. The fact that there are more than one there implies susceptibility at that area so prevention is rather necessary. This guitar was, in my opinion, played & then left unattended. Its bagless nature would imply external knocks while the instrument was at rest, more so than careless handling. The neck was warped at the time of purchase but I have faith in guitars with truss rods & this one was successfully rectified.
