Aria DM380 Diamond Series Electric Guitar Reviews
9 out of 10
zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us.
"Very unique guitar!"
Feature:
Simple controls and switching. Easy to use. Good Vibrato tailpiece/bridge. Would have liked a straight white pickguard rather than the pearlite white, but it doesn'y really matter that much to me.
Quality:
It seems to be well made. Just like all other guitars it needs to be setup by an expert. Good fret job, but the frets are a little high for my likeing so I filed them down a little and re crowned and polished them. The nut needs a little attention, the strings are a little high at the first fret. The frets are a little harder than most, but it will make them last longer.
Value:
Great price!
Desirability:
When I first saw it, I wanted one immediately!
Sound:
Clear and crisp sound, with great sustain.
Ease of Use:
With a guitar effects pedal you can make sound any way you want. Comfortable to play, even sitting down.
Support:
Don't expect to need any support.
Overall:
It's a great replacement for a Ventures model Mosrite, not a precise copy but tweaked in shape for comfort and good looks.
