This is my baby.  Blows away the Gibson Explorer's I've owned and played and would probably sell for more.  This has to be ultra rare since I can find no mention of Aria making this model prior to Aria Pro II.  So any info would be great.Mid 70's Aria Explorer (Gibson Korina Explorer copy) Img_9410Mid 70's Aria Explorer (Gibson Korina Explorer copy) Img_1810

O-o-o-h nice! Drool!

I've always loved the Korina look on this and other guitars. Leave it to a Japanese maker to make a Gibson better than Gibson!
