    While photoing all of my Charvels, I thought my other guitars needed some love too.

    1984 Aria Pro II RS Knight warrior. I have owned this guitar for 22 years, gigged for almost 10. Totally retired and mostly a case queen now, she earned it. Alot of chips and dings, but she never complained. Great memories.

    Celebrity Acoustic


    Dean Bantar/ Guitjo, saw this in a pawn shop and had to get it. Something diffrent.


    2002 Fender Mexi Tele


    2004 fender Mexi Strat, it's actually maroon/burgundy, looks black in the photo.


    GP Custom??? Don't know much about this one. Coworker thought it was a GMP, it's not.

      Nice collection. Cool to see that someone else appreciates those 80s Aria Pros.

        To me Aria Pros, especially the Knight Warrior are incredable sleeper guitars. Solid construction and can be had cheap. They are where the Model Series guitars were a couple of years ago. You see them on the bay for $100 to $200, excpt of course their Les Paul copies those go for decent money.

        I have thought about having mine refinished like Lynch's Into the Fire Aria, however I have never seen a Knight Warrior with a maple fretboard like his. I'm not even sure his was a Knight Warrior.

          There were quite a few Arias available with a maple board. I'm not sure if the Knight Warrior was, but the necks should be interchangeable.

              The Bantar is cool as long as you play single notes, any chords and the thing sounds like shit.

                    Loving the Kramer Voyager-type thing. Always wanted one of those.
