I can't speak for Aria but the next guitar up from that price, Eastwood's Hi Flyer, Isn't a good Mosrite copy. (Then again, It is a copy of Univox's Hi Flyer so it is a copy of a copy) The body is too small and the neck is too big and the neck isn't replaceable because it is a set neck. The pickups aren't too exciting either although those can be replaced.
Then again, That is a whole other guitar. Back on topic.
