The SH-1000 are the exciting new entries in the ARIA PRO II Prototype Line—a hot, sensational series with a truly distinctive concept.

They feature a semi-hollow body carved out from solid wood, combined with a through-neck construction. It is a bold design, but also one that makes perfect structural and acoustic sense.

The SH Series is equipped with ARIA PRO II’s original molded humbucker pickups, the MH-I, along with the BB Circuit, producing an active, modern sound. At the same time, its simple yet highly functional control system allows for a wide range of tone shaping. In short, this is a super series created to fulfill the demands and dreams of professional guitarists.

Semi-Hollow Body

The heart of the SH Series lies in its revolutionary body design: a semi-hollow body carved out from solid ash, combined with a through-neck structure.

The beautifully arched top is, of course, also carved. While emphasizing the visual impact of its flowing body lines, the design still retains a classic sense of guitar aesthetics.

The neck uses a five-piece maple/walnut through-neck construction. Together with the pickup layout and other carefully considered details, the design minimizes unwanted feedback and resonance as much as possible. These functional design choices give the guitar a remarkably long-sustaining sound—something previously unimaginable for a conventional semi-acoustic or semi-hollow electric guitar.

By following the fundamentals of guitar construction while boldly reimagining the body structure, PRO II created something only it could have achieved: a new kind of super semi-hollow electric guitar.

The body features a distinctive construction: a semi-hollow body carved out from ash, combined with a five-piece maple/walnut through-neck.

Equipped with MH-I humbuckers and the BB Circuit, an original sound-shaping system developed by PRO II, the SH-1000 stands as the leading model of this series.

With its active sound, modern playability, and simple yet functional beauty, the high-performance SH-1000 is truly a “super guitar” made for guitarists.
