article: 7811

country: Япония

Production: Japan
Bass guitar.
A very rare professional instrument from Aria Pro II, produced, perhaps, in the best period of the company's activity at the famous Matsumoku factory (1979-1981). An instrument of the early release period, this is evidenced by the shape of the vulture's head and the decoding of the TS series name as "Tri Sound" (while later TS instances were called "Thor Sound"). The distinctive features of this bass guitar are a through-neck made of walnut and maple with" ears " made of ash, a brass sill, a switch for parallel / sequential switching of the pickup coils, a six-position galetnik of timbral variations, a massive patented string holder. The previous owner also installed a single sensor from Bartolini in the bridge position, which adds to the overall variability of the possible sound. The instrument is in more than good condition for its age.
