I made some sound samples when i got it, i'lls ee if i still had them.
It sounded very good, and i still miss it dearly. It way my first P-Bass, but i played some more expensive P-Basses later and i liked my bass more... of course this is based on personal taste.
It needed a setup, but not like fretdressing or so, just straightening the neck, and adjusting string-height.
It had a few spots where there was buzzing, but i could live with that.

Here they are, i have to say, i'm a little embarrassed with the playing. (and just so you know, i like my strings so low that they give fretbuzz, it's not that you can't set it up to have no fretbuzz).

Oh no! The guys who I was buying my Aria from say they are out of stock! I've been re-funded and now might just go for the SX Pino!

sorry to hear about that.....
If you dont mind me asking, what happened? did you drop it? did you smash it into something?

In a near-SonicYouth-Experience, i kicked in all my effects and though it might be a good IDea to drop the bass on the stage (i didn't throw it down, just let it fall), and the Top of the body came of.
I got so pissed of then, that i picked it up and slammed it again on the floor, then the neck snapped.

Back in my punk days of the late 70s/early 80s I smashed up a few P-Basses, and one time some guy ran on-stage afterwards and grabbed up all the bits and asked if he could keep 'em. Hell No, I hung 'em on my wall.
