The dove inlay seems to be the indication of a MIK aria.
But this inlay appears on the APII PE-Supra which is a pure matsu product.
The picture of the head of the supra posted by Ohjay shows a dove with 6 feathers.
I found the same design on the heads of korean FA-DLX & FA-STD, see below:

The later korean Aria's have got dove with 5 feathers, loosing the one located above dove's head, like jbyear1 mentionned in one of his posts.
So now can we be sure that only korean products wear the dove inlay?
Do we have members owning late matsu APII or early korean products with the 6 feathers dove?
Could some light be thrown on this question?
Michel.

I've established a quick and easy way to differentiate the 2...

:-?
Matsu = Female Dove
Korean = Male Dove

He asks how to sex a dove and you refer to him by a suspiciously shortened handle....

He who would pun would also pick pockets, Pierre. :o
