Aria Pro II Diamond Series JX-550 - Korea 1990

Description: No fretwear, condition would be excellent if not for the ding on the back. Really cool guitar, plays great, just like a Jackson or Charvel.Aria was formed in Japan in 1956 by Shiro Arai as "Arai & Co., Inc". Starting in 1964, Matsumoku built all of their guitars under contract. The brand name was changed to "Aria Pro II" in 1975.[1] In 1987, production of many lower end models moved to Samick in Korea, due to the closure of Matsumoku and rising costs of production in Japan.Diamond was a cheaper sub-brand of Aria, which moved production entirely to Samick around the same time. They seem to have become a Japanese market exclusive brand by then.Packing and Shipping:I always loosen the strings and support the tremoloSpecial care is given to protect the headstock, especially if it is tilt-backI wrap any accessories away from the guitarGuitars I ship without a case get completely bubble wrapped and then surrounded by padding inside the guitar shipping box.I draw arrows on the box so the carrier does not transport upside down.I always ship using UPS Ground.I do not always take pictures of the neck pocket. Almost every vintage bolt-on neck guitar has small cracks in the paint in that area. If that is something that you care about, then ask me to look and send pics. Otherwise, just expect it.The majority find my setups to be just right, and playable without any professional intervention (read my feedback). This setup may not be to your specifications, however. If it does not feel right to you, please consider a full setup to get the guitar dialed in to your preferences.Photos are part of the description. Check out my other guitars for sale
