AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

1980s MIJ made in Japan Aria A452 Classical 4/4 Concert Guitar in Excellent Condition

Neck is Mahogany

Classy rosewood Fingerboard .

Multi-ply bindings.


No breaks- cracks or repairs! Casual scratches and some dings on the top near the bridge, light ding on the back of neck. Nothing unusual for the age, only cosmetic issues.

The neck is straight with a tiny bit of relief.

String height at 12th fret is at around 3.5 to 4mm.

The tone is loud deep and beautiful. Very chimey, lots of overtones.

Not a solid top model, but given the quality of materials, craftsmanship, attention to detail and the fact that it has dried and matured beautifully with years, lacks none of the tone/volume/presence/overtones of a solid top guitar. Much like Yamahas and the like guitars of Japanese and Korean origin around the same era.


Please watch to see and hear the beautiful performance of this guitar on our YouTube video, the link:

Recently has been cleaned & set-up, strings are semi-new normal tension set.

The guitar comes with a very nice blue vinylex gigbag which has plenty of padding,era correct and very vintage vibing. Some wear visible but no bad/funny smells.



Will be very well packed in carboard box.
International shipping is available
