Aria Pro II Apocalypse Refinish Bass Guitar

$2,222.78 NZD

This striking bass is a one-of-a-kind, hand-painted masterpiece from Devil & Daughters Guitars. The unique apocalyptic refinish covers the entire body, neck, and fretboard, resulting in a truly bespoke instrument. The bass itself is an ARIA/ARIA PRO II IGB 40, dating from the late 1990s to early 2000s, lovingly restored and upgraded by Daniel – Devil & Daughters’ founder – whose first ever bass this was. It has benefitted from brand new frets, an upgraded bridge, and an exclusive paint finish that will not be found anywhere else.

 

Stunning Hand-Painted Finish

Every inch of this bass – body, neck, and fretboard – is adorned with a unique, hand-painted apocalyptic design, developed and executed by Daniel of Devil & Daughters Guitars. The artwork is not only eye-catching but also protected with a professional clear coat, ensuring exceptional durability and flawless playability for years to come.

 

Restored and Upgraded for Professional Performance
