Question QUESTION: I have a Model AW-6050 Aria guitar and am wondering if you have any info on this guitar, it has no serial # from what i have read, this may be a 1960's model. What do you know? Thanks
ANSWER: This is more then likely a 1960s model. If a guitar has no serial number, it is definately older than the late 60's. Thank you for your question!

QUESTION: Wes, thanks for the info on my aw-6050 Aria Accoustic guitar. Can you give me any more info, history or anything? Thanks David
Answer Well, David, in the 70s, copyright laws really started to settle in and take effect. This, plus the purpose of identification, is why they started serializing their guitars. Of course, I can't be 100% on the age of your instrument, because it could have had a serial number on a sticker that was (for some reason or another) removed. I hope I have helped you out!
All the best!
