Aria TSB-400, sunburst, made in Japan 1983. This was a later and stripped down version of the perfectly titled Thor Sound series. It's a great sounding bass, the humbuckers dole out a creamy, warm tone with a heap of low end focus and rumble. It's got a tasty maple neck that sits somewhere between a P and J in thickness and feels very cooperative in the hands. The finish has aged gracefully and looks all the better for a few little marks here and there; it's got a certain wonky-vintage charm. If you're after a cool little quirky bass that's very well thought out and beautifully made bass, this one is a fun little friend to have.
