Some time ago I picked up an Aria Diamond bass as a project. The Diamond is a predecessor of the Univox Hi-Flyer, made in the late 60's. Problem was, the Diamond was a body and neck with a bridge and pickguard, and it needed a complete refin and electronics. It was the one I planned to refin in Gibson Gold Top. I already have the paint from Reranch, and a pair of Hi-Flyer pickups from Eastwood that are a perfect fit....but no time.
BUT - last night I found the same bass on Ebay, in sunburst, complete and even sporting the bridge cover (which I like). Now it's mine, and I'm going to re-sell the project Diamond. I'll put up info later today, and also list on Ebay...but if someone here wants to make a decent offer, I'll sell it here. For YOU GUYS, if you like, I'll throw in the Gold Top refin paint from Reranch.com at no extra charge.
I'm just not getting around to some of the projects I have, so the Aria goes, my Kay K-2B will go, and a Lyle SG-style bass will go.
Here's the new toy - NOT requiring assembly:
