Produced at the Matsumoku factory in Japan, this Rev-Sound Aria Pro II features neck-through construction with a seven-ply maple\/walnut neck, ash body wings with a maple core, and a rosewood fretboard.\u003cbr\u003e\r\u003cbr\u003e\rThe neck-through construction offers excellent natural sustain and resonance, and the midrange complexity and note attack of the ash body is faithfully captured by the stock MH-1 humbuckers. These pickups have an ideal blend of warmth and articulation, metering at 9.8k ohms, with beefy-yet-clear sounds at the neck and slightly more focused, treble-centric shimmer at the bridge. Additionally, the two-way Mix-Switch mini-toggles brighten things up with single coil-esque sparkle when engaged (not a coil tap, both coils are still engaged), and the two-way Phase Reversal switch yields slinky, out-of-phase sounds. This RS-800 weighs 8lbs 2oz, professionally setup here at Mike \u0026amp; Mike’s Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.\u003cbr\u003e\r\u003cbr\u003e\rNeck Specs:\u003cbr\u003e\r\u003cbr\u003e\r-Wood: Seven-ply maple\/walnut\u003cbr\u003e\r-Shape: Slender C, full shoulders, measuring .805” 1st fret, .930” 12th fret\u003cbr\u003e\r-Fretboard: Rosewood, 9 1\/2“ radius, pearloid ellipse “eyeball” inlay\u003cbr\u003e\r-Frets: Medium jumbo, no wear\u003cbr\u003e\r-Scale Length: 25 1\/2”\u003cbr\u003e\r-Nut: 1 11\/16”, brass\u003cbr\u003e\r-Tuners: Aria Pro II-branded\u003cbr\u003e\r-Serialization: 3-prefix (1983, Matsumoku), “Made in Japan” foil sticker\u003cbr\u003e\r\u003cbr\u003e\r\u003cbr\u003e\rBody Specs:\u003cbr\u003e\r\u003cbr\u003e\r-Wood: Ash body wings, maple core\u003cbr\u003e\r-Pickups: MH-1 humbuckers\u003cbr\u003e\r-Harness: Untouched solder, original Japanese pots date to ‘82 and ‘83\u003cbr\u003e\r-Hardware: Brass Adjusto-matic bridge, tailpiece\u003cbr\u003e\r\u003cbr\u003e\rThe gloss Walnut finish is notably clean, with cosmetic wear limited to a few tiny nicks along the body perimeter and just a couple microscopic marks on the body as a whole.
