ARIA PRO II 'RSB Medium Candy Apple Red - 1985 Vintage Matsumoko Japan

This is an excellent vintage era made in Japan, Matsumoko factory Aria Pro II RSB Medium 'Rock Solid Bass'' Finished in Candy Apple Red metallic, the Bass is in excellent condition for its 38 years.

There are a couple of very small scrapes around the body edges and some light top surface swirls, difficult to photograph. There is some check lines in the lacquer around the reverse of the tuners near the screw holes, but its just the paint and not an eyesore. Overall its very well kept and preserved..

Good frets with plenty life; super clean fretboard, frets and hardware, everything works as it should. The Bass has had a mini setup, fretboard clean and nourish, fret dress and a thorough clean throughout along with the action adjusted to a comfortable medium height.

A simple layout of Aria Pro11 MB-H2 pickups, a volume knob, a tone knob and three way switch means its easy to navigate around the different tones and sounds that this Bass produces. Its versatile, equally at home playing everything from Folk, Jazz, Blues and Rock. .

This excellent unmolested original Bass will appeal to both players and particularly collectors who appreciate the quality of vintage Japanese musical instruments..
