The MIK Aria Pro II FA 50E is an arched Mahogany top 16 inch-deep hollow body jazz guitar with maple back and sides, a maple set neck with a 20-fret rosewood fingerboard and dot inlays. It has a single floating SMH-1 mini-humbucker pickup controlled by volume and tone controls mounted on the pickguard. It has an adjustable rosewood bridge and a trapeze tailpiece and chrome hardware. The FA 50E is the electric version of the FA 50 acoustic guitar and comes in two versions. This first year 1999 model states the model as an FA 50, not FA 50E, but it obviously is a factory-made FA 50E since it has the mini-humbucker pickup. These early models have the volume and tone controls mounted vertically on the pickguard and the later models have the controls knobs mounted horizontally at the bottom of the pickguard. The finish has several minor cosmetic chips and dings shown in the pictures. This guitar plays and sounds fabulous. I did not get a case with this guitar, but it will be well-packed, and fully insured, in bubble wrap.
