NBD - Aria SB-700

Gorgeous!! Apart from the lack of brass bridge and nut you’d be hard pressed to tell it from an original like mine…

I'm a huge Big Country/Tony Butler fan!
They were a hugely underrated band. I won free tickets in a local radio competition to see them on their “Crossing The Country” tour - their first big national one just before the album came out. Went along with no expectations having only heard a couple of singles and was completely blown away. So so good. Tony was on fire dancing across the stage playing a white P Bass.

One of my favorite bands of all time! I used to buy all of their import CD's and cassettes! (Dating myself!) Tony had a big impact on my bass playing. I never had a chance to see them live when I was a teenager.
