Up for sale, a 1984 Aria Pro II ZZ Custom in excellent, 100% original condition and in perfect working order, complete with a hardshell case. This rare Aria model was crafted in Japan at the Matsumoku factory as part of Aria’s aptly named Blood Series, produced for a notably brief period and designed as a perfect complement to the exploding popularity of glam metal. Features include a beveled Explorer-style body, a pair of Protomatic V pickups, Floyd Rose-licensed double locking tremolo, and, of course, a gloss Bloody White finish.
The Protomatic V humbuckers feature ceramic magnets, offering plenty of power and punch, keeping things tight and crisp in high gain situations while offering a range of roaring tonalities ideal for searing leads and crunchy chords. This ZZ Custom weighs 7lbs 15oz, professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with fresh 10-46 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.
