These quondam Aria Pro's are becoming pretty popular & collectable. I purchased this in Hampshire a month or then ago & was initially a bit disappointed with the guitar. Like and then ofttimes, it hadn't been looked after & was dirty & poorly set with crackly switches & knobs.

Sanox guitars are quite rare & there is little info on the web nigh them. Having previously owned a set neck model with twin humbuckers, I went after this 1 when information technology came upward for auction. It was about certainly built in the 70's or the 80's. I don't believe there was ever a "Sanox" factory this probably hailed from the Matsomuko manufacturing plant or similar. There is a tale that "Sanox" is the Japanese interpretation of the discussion "Saxon" I don't know, amusing though!
This one, now gone to Germany

Yamaha SA-1100
1983 JV Squier J Jazz Bass Original!!
This was the first JV Squier I owned & had the adventure to play. To be honest, I always wondered what all the fuss was about. They can't be that skilful, can they?
I suppose the important thing is to empathise the history & to realise that what yous have is a 25 year old Japanese Fender with Us Pickups & electrics
Hither is some history .....
"Fender, under the ownership of CBS, acquired the Squier brand proper noun in the mid to late-1960s when it bought a USA based string-making firm, merely it lay dormant for many years.
In the early 1980s, several events were pushing Fender to produce a 2d-line brand. Firstly, CBS had sold out to new management without the factories in California. This meant there would be a driblet in product before new manufacturing plants could be synthetic and commissioned. Also, at that place was a demand for an inexpensive range of guitars that could not exist manufactured in the The states at a low enough price due to the cost of manpower and raw materials. Furthermore, companies were producing Strat copies at affordable prices to cater to a large market place of novice guitarists, and this tendency was eroding Fender's share of the market, specially in Europe and Asia.
As a solution to the aforementioned problems, the Squier brand name was resurrected in the early 1980s to distinguish a serial of classic reproductions called the known as the Squier JV Serial . These were surprisingly authentic reproductions of classic 1950s and 1960s Fender guitar models. Soon, a 2nd series followed and these were chosen the SQ series every bit seen from the prefix to their serial numbers. They were generally reproductions of 1970s models, the main difference being that they were completely made out of parts fabricated in Nippon , whereas the initial JV series used United states of america-manufactured pickups."
Initial Squier JV series
When initially launched in Europe in the early 1980s the Squier range offered classic reproductions of Fender's most popular models: '57 and '62 Stratocasters, '57 and '62 Precision Basses, '52 Telecasters and '62 Jazz Bass. These were made in the Fuji Gen Gakki factory in Japan - so besides used past Ibanez - using original factory blueprints. These early Squiers are referred to every bit "JV Squiers" due to those two messages being the prefix on the serial number stamped on the neck plate that correspond "Japanese Vintage". Initial shipments to Europe had Fender'southward logo in large script on the headstock with a small-scale "Squier Series" decal merely quickly this gave mode to a large Squier logo with a small "by Fender" decal. These early JVs are extremely accurate reproductions of the classic models and are highly sought past guitar collectors, especially in Europe.
This case is 98% original with only a volume control knob changed every bit the original came off & was lost. It isn't pristine just plays & sounds great! They are very worthy of all the fuss. For info, this ane has fabric shielded wiring, all the right neck stamps. A neck appointment of i-08-83
Now owned by Bram Derk (musician) from The netherlands
1990's Fenix Les Paul Standard
A rare example of a Fenix Les Paul Standard. Made in Korea in the 1990's by Young Chang (Yes, we all know the story of the Ex-Fender guy who set himself up in Korea.)
