Aria Pro II SB-CLB Cliff Burton Signature Bass – Limited Edition 2026

The Aria Pro II SB-CLB Cliff Burton Signature Bass is a limited-edition tribute to one of the most influential bassists in heavy metal history. Faithfully recreating the iconic Aria Pro II SB-1000 that Cliff Burton used during the early days of Metallica, the SB-CLB brings back the distinctive design, powerful active electronics, neck-through construction, and unmistakable character of the original instrument.

Limited production for 2026 only, the SB-CLB is built for both serious players and collectors. The combination of an Ash body, Maple/Walnut neck-through construction, Rosewood fingerboard, MB-10E pickup, and the legendary B.B. Circuit provides the powerful, flexible sound associated with the SB series.

The QHB-1BR tailpiece/bridge is crafted from solid brass for enhanced sustain, resonance, and classic vintage tone. The B.B. Circuit provides six selectable low-pass filter presets, allowing you to dramatically shape the character of the bass at the turn of a single knob.

Cliff Burton’s signature is inscribed on the back of the headstock as a distinctive mark of authenticity and tribute. The bass also includes the original-style heavy-duty gig bag featuring Cliff Burton’s signature.

This is an exceptional opportunity for Metallica fans, Cliff Burton collectors, bass players, and anyone looking for a highly distinctive, limited-production Aria Pro II bass.
