Aria guitar identification9/1/2023 ![]() ![]() What I really wanted was a true filter such as in the SB-1000 giving several different tones rather than the treble roll-off with a normal passive tone control. I played my white Elite a bit more and pretty well convinced myself that there wasn't much overall effect from the passive tone controls. However, dual concentric, dual ganged miniature guitar pots with a long enough neck to fit through the body proved quite hard to find at first. ![]() The earlier one has a separate tone for each pickup.Īt first I thought about making giving the red one the same electrics as the white one.

The padauk is a later model around 1988 or 1989 I think and was probably made either at another factory in Japan. It has a fast action neck and is easy to play. The 2 Elite's are different models, a white one made in the Matsumoku factory in Japan. Over the past year I have collected a number of Aria Pro2 bass guitars including 2 SB2 Elite 2 models and an SB-1000 with active varitone. ![]()
