Members ArKay Posted April 30, 2006 Members Share Posted April 30, 2006 How about this Aria Pro II Tele, frets? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frets99 Posted April 30, 2006 Author Share Posted April 30, 2006 I like the look of the cherry sunburst strat. Fender has a gorgeous one I've ogled at my local GC at about $600+. It's interesting. I don't care for a cherry sunburst LP but love a strat that way. I prefer the gold top LP. Also, I'm strangely drawn to the black strat with the tortoise pickguard. Just wanted to know if anybody's played em. I expect they're not too diiferent than an affinity Squier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see the cherry sunburst attraction of course Have to wait until October though, Chinese guitar. No information on Sanatoga in the DB here, not looking good? They seem to be connected to JT, usually the shops seem to carry both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members JimboJ Posted April 30, 2006 Members Share Posted April 30, 2006 Originally posted by ArKay Yeah, I guess they are actually made by Jay Turser. Yes they are made by Turser for MusicLandCentral, which is a web dealer located in Sanatoga, PA. Dennis is their biggest dealer, so they gave him his own line of guitars. They are basically the same guitars as Tursers, with different finish options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There must be no way of escaping poking out some body part with that thing....if not just stubbing a finger trying to tune it in a dark venue!

Frets99 Posted May 1, 2006 Author Share Posted May 1, 2006 BTW - love that cherry sunburst. But just on Fender-like guitars! Semi-hollows, hollows, LPs ... none of them do it for me with that finish.. but a strat or even that Jay Turser tele... yum! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members CyanideChrist Posted May 1, 2006 Members Share Posted May 1, 2006 Originally posted by ArKay Yeah, I guess they are actually made by Jay Turser. That's what I thought, though I was told otherwise by someone else on here. But I know there's some relation. I have a Sanatoga Strat loaded with a fat strat pickguard, and for the money I'm not complaining. Not tone monsters, but hey. Feels comfortable too with weight and neck size.

You're in paradise though. Laying my hands on a JT is much more difficult for me with shipping + tax from the US. Only thing I can do is to bring them back from China. Currently there are 3 guitars on my list, dunno how to handle it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Chris Heath Posted April 2, 2020 Members Share Posted April 2, 2020 Are sanatoga guitars made by Fender or do they just look like a Sqire Srat? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they're made by Fender, this is the first I've heard of it. I'm pretty sure they aren't affiliated with Fender. BTW, welcome to Harmony Central!

Members J Backlund Posted April 3, 2020 Members Share Posted April 3, 2020 I still have my seafoam green Sanatoga '335' hanging on a wall. Almost never play it anymore, but it's an ok guitar, Chinese manufacture. Sanatoga was the 'house brand' guitar for a music store/internet seller in the eastern US, can't quite remember their name, maybe something like Musicland? I don't know if they were rebadged Jay Tursers, but quite possibly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators daddymack Posted April 4, 2020 Moderators Share Posted April 4, 2020 yes, MusicLandCentral carried them, and yes, the 'other' Jay Turser label...these are probably as good as the stuff at Guitar Fetish, or the Firefly guitars, and I had heard them favorably compared to Agiles many years ago when Agiles were all the rage....supposedly they were originally made by Samick, I'm not sure if they are even being produced now?
