Aria Pro II SB-700 Reviewed by Nick Jennison

Model: SB-700
Aria Pro II SB series had been esteemed by legendary bassists through the ages including Cliff Burton, John Taylor, Rudy Sarzo, Jack Bruce, Marcus Miller, and more.
Originally released in 1978, Aria Pro II SB-700 is back with some modern refinements as well as embracing the signature look and heritage. The neck-through construction with silky smooth heel-less custaway is just comfortable to play and generate unbeatable playability at higher fret positions. The superior body resonance and tonal sustain are boosted with the original MB-1E pickup. The vintage style QHB-1 bridge and control knobs complete the classic SB figure and vibe. Available in 3 colour varitions of OAK, PADUAK RED, and WALNUT.

Series sounds great, definitely my pick of the 2 options. It's great that this model is being reissued. Good review. The overdrive for the picked part sounded great too.

The original SB’s had brass bridges and nuts.

Would love to get one of these, but they seem rather hard to find in the EU...

I dare say guitarists associate the Aria SB series with Cliff Burton, but Bassists associate the Aria SB's foremost with John Taylor. This "reissue" seems closer to the SB-R60 than the SB700, if you factor in neck dimensions and string spacing.

Why so difficult to get in the US?
