What a difference! This is what I was hoping this guitar would sound like. This guitar has some balls now. I liked the fact it was mostly original (I think) but since it wasn't a big dollar vintage guitar I decided let's make it a player. Here's a picture of it now.

It looks identical to the sunburst pics, apart from having a fixed tailpiece. Is the headstock of yours the same as the pictured examples?
Univox as a brand seems to have been contracted through Aria/Shiro Arai Co - however it's unclear where the early examples were manufactured - opinion's divided as to whether Arai Co used Matsumoku that early, or whether they actually had their own manufacturing facility.

I've been looking around for some recent price information on your guitar but so far I haven't found a guitar similar to yours that has sold recently. This is a fairly common instrument so something will probably turn up soon.
I can tell you that your guitar was made by Aria in the early 1970's and was imported by Univox to be sold under their brand name.
If you are still searching for a price, check Aria 335 copies as well. I can tell you back when I watched these guitars about 4 years ago they typically sold for around $300. I'm just not sure where the prices are today, but my hunch is that they are not that much different. Millions of Japanese 335 copies were imported in the 1970's.

If anybody knows an approximate value of this guitar I would be interested to know that.
