They have this listed as a Blitz which were budget versions available in Japan (think Greedson's Epiphone line) but it is NOT a Blitz at all. Understandable as it is Moron Go Round.
Most likely a variation on the A-1922 (see page 2 of the catalog linked below).
Still a bit pricey but in fairly good shape considering its age (approx 48 years). These don't come up too often at all any more. If you're into the early Arias this might be one to consider.

Not a Blitz, Something much more uncommon
Re: Not a Blitz, Something much more uncommon
Pricey indeed. A friend of mine had one of these when we were kids.
It was about on par with my Global LP.

Re: Not a Blitz, Something much more uncommon
They will probably get it since I can't be the only person that knows what it is in reality. A very hard to find Aria SG from the mid 70s and in darn good shape for its age. People are spending silly amounts for older Japanese Aria and Aria Pro II guitars. I've seen Korean Memphis go for silly amounts because people think they were made by Matsumoku. One day their bubble will burst. I've seen quite a few AP2s go for stupid money on Reverb. $800 for a TS-400? $650 for a CS-400? $450 for a very "weathered" CS-350? A CS-250 for $580 simply because Kurt Cobain trashed one? These were all before shipping.
Someone will probably pay the $450 for it. We have to resign to the fact that these are no longer guitars but collector's pieces for collectors with deep pockets and money to burn.
