Now I've had the chance to look them up, I'm far from convinced I was in my right mind.
I've discovered nearly all Arias were 'Pro' models and I'm at a loss to name the model that got me hooked. It coulda been something like this one currently on e-bay, but don't hold me to it:

the late great trish keenan played a burns nusonic & james & tim played glitter ekos & other cool & obscure 60s offsets. i was la-la about broadcast when they came out & it broke my heart when trish died.

siouxsie played (on occasion) a vox teardrop. one finger style maybe, but all the right notes in the right order (as the saying goes) & with incomparable style.

Many guitars have a re-sale value. Some you'll never want to sell.

I also wanted the " superyob " played by Dave Hill of Slade which I thought was the bees-knees .
The closest I got was saving and buying a pair of 4inch platform boots from Shelleys Shoes in Camden Town

I was young and impressionable...
They had a large turntable in the window on which various instruments rotated - including a natural, maple neck Strat, with black plastics. To an impressionable young boy, it looked like the most exotic object I'd ever seen....
However, when I first started playing Guitar as a kid, it was the Mid 80's, so I also loved the Charvel and Jackson Super Strats, like this one.
I like traditional Guitars now, I must be mellowing in old age.
