Newbie? Welcome.

Wow! Nice collection. I have had a couple of vintage Aria basses - SB1000 which was nice and a TSB550. The TSB550 is short scale but was very sweet and fun to play.

Thanks. Yes newbie to this forum.
I tried a couple of Aria basses, and really liked them, but the double P
configuration on the VP710B just blew me away.
Got my first one in 82 and still play them
some 30 years later

Can't keep a good Mats down!
I don't play bass but I have a number of Vantage guitars including an '81 VP710 which I just love.

Happy to hear you're still gigging and enjoying these instruments. Thanks for the pix.
