Aria Pro II is an international brand that has been active since the early days of Japanese guitar making.
Because it is an in-house brand of Arai Trading, a large trading company, we are good at achieving both high quality and affordable prices.
This is a new product released in 2025, RSB-800.
When I first looked at the information, I felt that the price was too low for its sufficient specs.
When I touched the actual product, I was surprised at its high quality.
This quality at this price comes from Arai Trading. It's a great product.
Manufactured in Indonesia.
Currently, the quality of guitar manufacturing in Indonesia is very high, and I think it's truly wonderful.
The body is made of Indonesian wood called Bayur, which makes it very lightweight.
Most individuals weigh less than 4 kg.
The rosewood on the fingerboard is of high quality, typical of Indonesia, and the same goes for the maple on the neck.
The tuning machine uses GOTOH GB-10.
A JB type single coil PU is combined with a preamplifier with a built-in 2-band EQ designed and manufactured in Japan.
BASS changes 70Hz by ±8db, and TREBLE changes 7kHz by ±18db.
Even when the BASS is turned up, the sound gets thick without becoming bouncy, and the TREBLE allows you to adjust the part where you feel a sharp attack with a wide range of variation.
A push-pull switch on the volume control allows switching to a passive circuit.
The 24F specification is also worth noting, and being able to get modern JB sound with this wide range is a big attraction.
I repeat this over and over again, but the quality is really great at this price.
However, there may be some scratches on the paint, which is unavoidable for low-priced products.
However, even considering these aspects, there is no doubt that it is a wonderful product.
Please feel free to touch it and be impressed.
