Hi all Aria proII SB lovers. So we all adore the Aria basses and most of us own one but how many of us have the brilliant enamel Aria Bass pin badge, i got mine a few yrs ago from Invalid Link Removed or com, i think they are sold out at the moment tho.

Hi again, just posted some more pics, the wiring has been done with high purity oxygen free solid core wire which would bump up the price if done as standard when made, all in all Stuart has done a fantastic job and of course Veijo in making the excellent pick up. I’m over the moon to have her...

Sorry about pic quality it’s late here, i wil take better pics tomorrow including the electrics. P.S. my other bass pictured is a 2001 Fender Zone, one of the earlier ones in the run, it has a Badass iii bridge added later and no issues with buzz or hum. It too is a superb bass, very light...

Hi there, got my fretless SB700 back from hospital yesterday. Stuart Palmer is the luthier who did the work for me (when the Stone Roses had a guitar issue Sturt was the man they sent for) needless to say, i value his opinion, he replaced an EMG pick up with the Rautia one i supplied, replaced...

Hi, thanks for that advice, i just got in touch with Stuart and asked him to do the pots aswell but he knows what he’s doing and told me not to worry, whatever i I just called the bloke who’s fitting the pick up and asked him to change the pots too, he knows what he’s doing tho and told me not...

Hi there, it looks and feels to me, like whoever did it didn’t change any of the pots just bypassed the dual tone switch but maybe it’s going to be a all out and start from scratch, i’ll phone Stuart in a few days, does anybody have ideas for which pots to buy to put it back to near as can...

Hi there, it’s the MB-II, i don’t think it started life as a fretless bass, its at Stuart Palmers guitar workshop now so i’ll let him see whats what, the wiring was a botch up at best.

Hi, this is my fretless (not certain it was from new) it’s going to a uthier today to have pick up fitted and wiring done to original spec, shoud make it beautiful again:. I bought it in this condition 3/4 yrs ago for £280

Hi and thanks, just the reply i wanted, i’m really looking forward to trying it when its all put back to spec, it has an emg pick up at the mo and a 9v battery put there by a previous owner. Thanks again.

Hello, i bought this SB700 as a fretless bass 3yrs ago, i knew the pick up and wiring were not original spec, tomorrow (29/01/21) it’s going to a guitar restorer/repairer of some note and local to me to have the pick up i bought at the end of the year, fitted and the wiring put right, has anyone...
