Since the origination of ARAI & CO. INC in 1956, Shiro Arai was cooperating with several classical guitar makers. During late 1960s and early 1970s Aria classical guitars were made either by Ryoji Matsuoka’s workshop (Ramirez style headstocks, 650mm scale) or Masaru Matano’s workshop (original Aria headstocks, 658mm scale).
Each workshop these guitars were made at (Matsuoka’s or Matano’s) had Ramirez style bracing, double sides and/or double backs. This special construction greatly reduces the effect of sound dumping caused by the body of the player. It all leads to great volume and extra richness of every individual note.
This Aria AC30 has great overall tonality, note clarity and separation. Its basses are very deep but clean, somewhat metallic. Its trebles are fat but sweet and very clear. This Aria doesn’t overpower its trebles. Its action is set to simply be easy playing. It is simply an amazing instrument. It is one of those “hard to put down” guitars.
Aria AC30 a concert model in the midrange category, Finish is beat up with scratches and dings through out, There is slight separation with the binding on the right side —please see picture for a accurate description— will ship with an old chip board case.
