vendettabass Posted September 11, 2007 Share Posted September 11, 2007 (edited) hey guys, Was thinking about selling my Aerodyne Jazz (no pickguard) and was wondering how much they go for 2nd hand at the moment. Its in decent condish, a few scratches to the back. It has Seymour Duncan 1/4 pounder replacements and Schaller straplocks, and comes in a Gator case. Just interested in how much a bass like this would fetch. cheers for looking PS. I was at Bassworld for like 2 years not loving this newbie status lol Edited September 11, 2007 by vendettabass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marky L Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 Hi all. Jumping in on this thread... can anyone give me their feelings/experiences with the Aerodyne Jazz?? I have it on my list of things to get sometime (after amp upgrade.. or maybe some sorta fretless first) but I'd love to hear from real users. I must admit to being attratcted to the dark side and all that lovely shiny blackness and smoked chrome.. yum! Anyhoo, any advice is greatly appreciated.

Deep Thought Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 I had one for a while, it was my dream bass at one time, so when I saw one on Ebay for £325 I nabbed it. It was a slightly dinged-up example but it still looked the mutt's nuts. It never really looked as good whilst being worn as I was expecting, though, and the one I had buzzed quite a bit. In the end I bought an Ibanez GSR200 as a backup for it, and liked it so much I bought a GS500 as well and sold the Aerodyne on Ebay for what I paid for it-I put a BIN on it and it was snapped up overnight. Nice bass, I think I'd have liked it better without the cream binding. Sounded fine although I don't recall being blown away by it. The GS500 is gone as well now in favour of my P-bass, which I like a hell of a lot more than I did the Aerodyne. Some of the other Aerodynes are really nice-I saw a blue flame-effect Aerodyne P-bass in my local shop which was stunning, as nice as any boutique bass I've ever seen. Some of the so-called Japan only ones with pickguards are really nice too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marky L Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 Thanks folks It's one of a long list of basses I must have!! I need a P-Bass too but that J Aerodyne looks like such good value. I need to have a try of one really. M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buzz Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 Try one. One thing to mention, I think they've got more of a severe neck radius on the fingerboard than standard jazz's, don't quote me on that though, I know it's quite rounded when compared to my VMJ (which is almost flat). It's lovely to play though, and the glossed back of the neck is fine and doens't become a chore to move around on. I do like mine, but the P-bass pup over powers the J and makes dialing in sounds much more of a pain in the arse, alot of people upgrade them for better pups. However, they do a nice p-bass sound with a bark out of the box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
