You can get one in Japan in the mid 80's 😵‍💫

 

Seriously though, try Ishibashi's u-box, ebay Japan, that kind of thing. This doesn't look like anything which has been in production in the last 35 years. They look like Aria pickups alright, though I've never seen that model before. The bridge saddles look Aria too.

yeah it’s definitely an Aria but without the name I don’t know what to search for!

 

It’s one to add to the ‘wants’ pile. I’m not going to pay a premium for it, but I’ll file it in the same box as Burns Flyte.

You could always get an Aria Pro II Laser and a hacksaw?

Thanks Sam, I hadn’t seen that, certainly a cool looking thing and 24 frets, not that I go above the 5th 😁

You could always buy my Ibanez Axstar, which is different in all kinds of ways but very 80s and also taking up space in my tiny office room.
