Members Mr.Grumpy Posted February 2, 2021 Members Share Posted February 2, 2021 The Aria Pro ZZ model* is a sort-of (Gibson) Explorer shaped guitar, with narrower waist and pointy-er body. I remember seeing them (and the bass version) when I started playing guitar, about '82 or '83. Can't help you with the serial number of yours, try a web search for "Matsomoku" which is the Japanese company that originally made the Aria and Aria Pro II branded guitars as well as Westone, Vantage, Arbor and some other budget brands. *The model name is "ZZ" not ZZ Top, that's of course the name of a band, and I'm pretty sure Billy Gibbons never played nor endorsed the Aria ZZ. Still a cool guitar, I'd love to have one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Ancient Mariner Posted February 8, 2021 Members Share Posted February 8, 2021 I remember those (and the Urchins) when they came out - wish I could have afforded one then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
