{"product_id":"868429","title":"Aria ProII VINTAGE ES-800 '80 Sunburst","description":"Arai Trading was established in 1956. Around 1963, they began manufacturing electric guitars, and after going through brands such as Arai and Arai Diamond, they established the acoustic guitar line Aria and the electric guitar\/bass guitar line AriaProII. Since then, they have produced numerous masterpieces, including the flagship \"PE\" series that continues to this day.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e This is an ES-800 semi-acoustic model equipped with a Varitone switch, and based on the serial number and other factors, we believe it was manufactured in 1976.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 【body】\u003cbr\u003e The guitar weighs approximately 3.45 kg. The 16-inch body is a semi-hollow structure made of maple wood. The color is a classic sunburst, and there is some damage commensurate with its age, such as scratches, dents, tarnishing and peeling of the metal parts, and unevenness between the binding and the wood at the cutaway. However, the paint still retains its shine, and considering its age, it can be said to be in remarkably good condition. The pickguard is missing.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 【neck】\u003cbr\u003e The neck is made of 3-piece mahogany with a rosewood fingerboard. There are a few small scratches and dents on the back of the neck, about the size of a grain of rice, but there is no major damage. The tuners are original with the \"A\" mark and function well with fairly consistent winding. There is some wear on the frets and nut, and slight indentations on the lower frets, but there is no extreme buzzing or dead spots, and playability is good. The nut width is approximately 40.5mm. It has a sleek U-shape profile.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e [Electrical System]\u003cbr\u003e The controls consist of two volume controls, two tone controls, a three-way pickup selector switch, and a six-way Varitone switch, just like the original. We have replaced the jack and changed the wiring to mono at our shop. The pickups are the original ones, and the combination with the Varitone switch allows you to enjoy a wide range of sounds.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Accessories: Soft case\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWeight: 3.45kg\u003cbr\u003e Body Material (Top\/Rim\/Back): Laminate Maple 1 piece\/Laminate Maple\/Laminate Maple 1 piece\u003cbr\u003e Neck Material: Mahogany 3 piece\u003cbr\u003e Fingerboard: Rosewood\u003cbr\u003e Nut Width: 40.5mm\u003cbr\u003e Fret Width: 2.7mm\u003cbr\u003e Neck Thickness (1F\/7F\/12F): 20.3mm\/22.8mm\/24.8mm\u003cbr\u003e Pickup (Neck\/Bridge): Aria ProII PRO Humbucker (8.0kΩ\/8.0kΩ)\u003cbr\u003e *The DC resistance value of the pickup is measured through the control section.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Heartman Vintage Guitars is a specialty store for vintage guitars and basses operated by Ikebe Musical Instruments.","brand":"Aria ProII","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46240168575089,"sku":"868429","price":960.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0638\/4173\/0673\/files\/868429_01.jpg?v=1790059321","url":"https:\/\/global.ikebe-gakki.com\/es\/products\/868429","provider":"Ikebe Musical Instruments Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
