:o :o :o love it!! are there other photos posted elsewhere? if this one is like his with a real flame top then i would say this is the "holy grail" of the aria lp line.

i would use the aria catalogue as a rough guide, nothing more. the only higher model than yours would be a flame top.

then what is the ls900 or ls1000?? knot tops?? hey btw, i would love to buy your ls600.

that's cool bro, ls-600 it is. see if you can find any photos of a marked ls-600 with a 2 piece solid top much less a 1 piece back.

1) 2 piece solid maple top (no veneer) 2) 1 piece mahogony non-chambered back 3) original unpotted dimarzio's (probably the slightly hot pafs) 3) thin binding in cut-out area showing maple cap 4) serial # 1xxxxx = 1981 5) gibby style pick up pockets 6) fret edge binding these tell me it's...

thanks much mick, i really don't have a way to post photos of it though.

i don't blame you, nothing worse than a jealous guitar!

brown burst = tobacco burst black burst = vintage bursts

1980 aria pro2 les paul standard, 3 piece mahagony medium set neck with rosewood board. not only did customs nail me on this guitar but the truss rod seems to be rusted into the neck. the brass adjusting nut is free, and the threads on the rod are very clean until you get below the washer...

yes, i can appeal it. but i was also told that nothing would be done about it. these customs guys are above the law. my seller always includes an invoice showing the cost, and it was missing when it arrived. this pisses me off too due to insurance reasons.

just bought another aria pro 2 lp off e-bay. i started getting worried when the tracking showed it was in customs for 4 days. when it arrived i had to pay $85.00 to customs! some dope there valued it at $850.00. out of the 4 arias i had imported this is the only one that got taxed. upon talking...

i was talking to an older friend who is an old-world wood craftsman from greece the other day. i started talking specifically about some of the things the guy in the artical was saying about the density of the mahagony affecting the tone quality. he said that the lower section of the tree is...
