That Sheraton is lovely. You know if its a MIK or MIC one?

I've really liked all the Casinos and Dots I've played in the past. There seems to be some inconsistencies in the way the neck shapes are though.

Is the Casino the completely hollow model?
I had an Aria Pro II Semi that was completely hollow (no centre block), the fucking depth of tone on that thing was ridiculous. Made me rethink what a good electric guitar is. I sold it as usual, like a twat.

Yes the Casino is the completely hollow 'un.

I remember seeing a video of that Aria you had. The Lady in Slowdive using something similar I believe,.

The Korean Casinos had the best Epi neck I've ever played on, so narrow and comfy. The Dots's necks at the time were horrendous by comparison.

I can understand why. Lets face it, Offsets look awesome but they offer a restricted tone. Having said that, i discovered LINE 6 AND NOTHING WILL STOP ME. EVER!!

Aye my Jaguar is pretty much a one trick pony but it does that trick very well.

Over the past couple of months I've found my Les Paul really does suit the way I play. But I've since realised I don't particularly like Humbuckers all that much.

I was thinking of some cheap and cheerful humbucker sized p90s. A pair of them, some twelves and I think it'd be perfect.

OK, so you obviously knew someone would ask when you posted that - what's the story on that yellow...thing? (sorry if it's been mentioned here before)

Ha ha! Proper eBay impulse buy. Made by Bell and Head. Cost me Â£36 if I remember correctly shipped from Germany.
It actually plays really nicely.

Got this locally a couple days ago. It's a 1981 Aria CS-350.

Good lad. You wont go wrong there, total quality!

Noirie. · Post by **Noirie.** » Fri Jul 20, 2012 9:05 pm

I knew you'd appreciate that. I got a little money knocked off so it was a bargain aswell.

These and quite a few Westones pop up quite often were I live. Never really given them much a look until a couple months ago.

Even Teh Kurtz used one at some point:

Does your one have the active boost? If not, whatr those toggle switches? Always liked these Aria/Westone dealies.
