Steve Browning Posted June 16, 2017 Posted June 16, 2017 (edited) Very pretty, lightweight Aerodyne in CAR with matching headstock. The usual excellent Japanese build quality in a nice light instrument that is very comfortable to play. Pickups have been upgraded to US versions for a bit more oomph and give a huge tonal variety. I have rarely used it and that is why it should find a home where it will be played. Collection preferred and I am willing to travel a reasonable distance to place into your hot, sweaty hand. Feel free to ask any questions. Edited July 6, 2017 by Steve Browning
Steve Browning Posted June 16, 2017 Author Posted June 16, 2017 Thanks Nik. It's very striking for sure.
UKLooney Posted June 16, 2017 Posted June 16, 2017 Hi Steve. I'm too far away for a meetup. Are you up for posting it? Does it come with a case/bag?
Steve Browning Posted June 17, 2017 Author Posted June 17, 2017 I could post it certainly. I haven't had any problems posting.but try and chicken out of it if I can. IT comes in a very well padded Warwick gig bag which is is more tha capable of keeping it safe and supports the neck properly too. Are you at the other end of the country. You may be surprised at how far I'd go to meet rather than post it (it's more personal as much as anything).
Steve Browning Posted June 20, 2017 Author Posted June 20, 2017 Time for a bump. I could include a Fender SKB shaped case with some adjustment.
CameronJ Posted June 20, 2017 Posted June 20, 2017 You don't see these around that often. Very cool bass!
Steve Browning Posted June 21, 2017 Author Posted June 21, 2017 Thank you. Yes, it's a reallly great looking thing and plays just as good as it looks.
foxyFuze Posted June 21, 2017 Posted June 21, 2017 What an instrument. I'd already be on the train to Portsmouth if I'd managed to sell my spare Jazz. Hmmm.....
briansbrew Posted June 21, 2017 Posted June 21, 2017 Hi Steve, Have you any more pics as I'm not getting these as close up as I would like, struggling eyesight I'm afraid Cheers Brian
Steve Browning Posted June 21, 2017 Author Posted June 21, 2017 Sure Brian. Is there anything you want in particular? PM me your email if you like and I can take whatever you want to see. I can email the full size pictures if that helps.
briansbrew Posted June 21, 2017 Posted June 21, 2017 Its OK Steve, I got some pics from earlier post that someone sold on bass chat. Beautiful bass
briansbrew Posted June 21, 2017 Posted June 21, 2017 They call this one [b] Fender Aerodyne Classic Precision Bass Special[/b]
Steve Browning Posted June 21, 2017 Author Posted June 21, 2017 I don't think that'll be this bass but you'll get the idea certainly. They are certainly very striking.
Steve Browning Posted June 21, 2017 Author Posted June 21, 2017 (edited) Blimey. The problem is solved someone reviews it as being perfect for heavy metal. Case closed!! :-) Edited June 21, 2017 by Steve Browning
Steve Browning Posted June 21, 2017 Author Posted June 21, 2017 Yes, it is the same model. I thought you were thinking it had been sold on Basschat before.
briansbrew Posted June 21, 2017 Posted June 21, 2017 I saw an ad from 2011 on basschat for the same Model and it looks sweet. I live in N Ireland by the way and I see that you would consider couriering it.
Steve Browning Posted June 22, 2017 Author Posted June 22, 2017 Yes. I am happy to do that. They do seem to be quite rare, especialy in red.
Steve Browning Posted June 30, 2017 Author Posted June 30, 2017 (edited) [attachment=248160:20170506_123604.jpg] Time for another bump. I have sourced a decent box so could send it in a Fender SKB case with a small adjustment. Edited June 30, 2017 by Steve Browning
uglybugPete Posted July 3, 2017 Posted July 3, 2017 Hi Steve, is this still for sale? If so you say it's light, is it below 8lbs. (3.7kg).?? thanks
Steve Browning Posted July 3, 2017 Author Posted July 3, 2017 I'll check. I would have thought so nut I will make sure and report back.
Steve Browning Posted July 3, 2017 Author Posted July 3, 2017 I'm stunned. It's actually 8.5lbs. I expected it to be less.
uglybugPete Posted July 4, 2017 Posted July 4, 2017 Sorry, i need something lighter, frozen shoulder, nice bass though Pete
Steve Browning Posted July 4, 2017 Author Posted July 4, 2017 That's ok. If it's a Pbass you're after then I would recommend an A/E - a semi-acoustic Precision with an additional piezo in the bridge.
