“At £419 this guitar sits in the market at a point where there are lots of guitars available and when comparing the specs to other available guitars I think the price is reasonable. However there are a few too many flaws in the build on this particular guitar for me, even considering the price point.”

Aria Guitars Says…”MSG-02 is beautifully crafted with solid engelmann spruce top, round back made of selected rosewood. Bolt-on neck joint is employed to generate clear projection and invincible body resonance. Great versatility for any style of players.”

“In the lap it’s a very comfortable feeling guitar, and the neck is pleasingly round, with enough bulk to fill the palm but never approaching chunky at any point.”

Aria Guitars MSG-02: UK RRP: £419.00

“First impressions of this guitar is that it’s pretty nice looking – I’m not 100% on the orange to black sunburst, but I do like the pearl purflings and rosette and the overall dimensions of the guitar – it’s almost classical in its body size.”
