Aria Legend bass?

[Nighttrain1127]

Does anyone know anything about these basses I have a line on one for a good price but would like to know what I am getting before I buy. Tried doing several searches on the Net and got no real info.
Any help would be appreciated.

I had both the P & J style of the Aria STB range they both had Alder bodies, both cost around £135 so compromises were made in the hardware/pickup departments. Both the ones I had were made well & the sunbursts looked good, and both had 21 frets IIRC. My pet peeve though of the shallow neck pocket stopped me from keeping either of them, they reminded me of being close "ish" to the Squier Standard range (my thought only).

Sound was ok as with anything a good setup etc works wonders.

Old thread revival alert!
I have a Seafoam green Legend Jazz style bass! It’s definitely not on par with a real fender but plays quite nicely for the $184 I spent on it! It had a bone and strap locks when I got it so I believe it was a players bass. It had a tortoise shell guard on it when I got it but I swapped it out for a mint green 11 hole fender mij pick guard which fits perfectly. I had it set up and threw in a set Aguilar HC pups and I must say it’s pretty awesome! I might swap the bridge out. (Extra badass in packaging awaits) I really dig the dark rosewood. I believe it’s from the late 90s.

Cheap bass IMHO with no different appeals from others replicas at same price.
