Aria Pro II SB-ELT
A killer old thumper from Aria Pro II! The SB-ELT is a bit of a funny one as far as vintage APII basses go. It was a transition model from Japanese production to Korean. The Matsumoku Factory that produced Aria Pro II instruments was closed in 1987 so production of APII's switched to Taiwan and Korea. Quality maintained high on these earlier Korean offerings, and a mix of Japanese and Korean woods and hardware was utilised on these builds.
This might not have the Matsumoku name attached to it but it is every bit as ferocious as an MIJ SB, with huge sustain and a potent pair of MB pickups that delivery crushing low end!
Spec:
- Maple/Walnut neck through construction
- Sen wings
- Rosewood fingerboard
- 24 frets
- 2x Aria Pro II MB-V humbucking pickups
- 2x Volume control
- Master Tone
- 2x 'Dual Sound' switches for each pickup
- Aria Pro II QHB-1 bridge
Our old SB-ELT is in good condition, some age related marks are present (pictured) but it wears them all very well. Set up with fresh D'Addario 45's and ready to go!
