The first electric guitar I purchased was a 1973 or 1974 Aria Japanese stratocaster copy. It featured a black body with three single coils set in a white pickguard. It had a rosewood fretboard over maple with a large headstock. A very fine guitar with no string buzzes or issues and comparable to the top brands at the time. I purchased the Aria new for around $200. Fender strats were going for around $325.

Does anyone remember these black Aria strats? They were exceptional copies with hardwood bodies and great necks.
