ya bugger! i was also bidding on this but due to other imminent purchases i couldn't go any higher considering the shipping and tax/import duty. congratulations let us all know what the total price comes to and more importantly how it sounds, ive got them, i have added them to my favourite sellers, they had a fender jaguar in vintage white a while ago which gave me i very bad GAS attack. hope you enjoy it looks like a beauty.

mmmm luurvely !!!![/quote]

Hi Bernie,
I got it from Sound Control in January this year.
I popped in to try some p.a. monitors and came home with a bass!

No it wasn't hidden when you visited, it was on loan to one of my mates.
He plays a Wal 5 mostly, but used this on a gig and was really impressed.
He's thinking of going back to 4 strings now.

Oh just as well i didn't see it really
as i may have made you an offer for it

It would have taken more than a box of choccies
to persuade the mrs to let me through the front door,
after my visit to you.

After borrowing a friends Aerodyne Jazz a few times I was on the lookout for one.
The few I tried did not match up to his example which has an amazing neck and balances really well.

Then I saw this and took a fancy to it.
My 75 jazz stays at home now.

Mr Bassman... :)

This is a pretty bass, but I've been out of playing since about '90 (kids house wife etc, how did that happen?), and getting back into it I've discovered many differnet Fender models than I knew before !
- Can you tell me, how does an Aerodyne differ from MIA standard or is it just a cosmetic thing?

Thanks for the advice

The top is arched and the back has more contouring than a standard. [attachment=323:contour.jpg]

Ollie,

Those Bacchus basses are the 'universe' series, the cheaper line made in Korea as opposed to the handmade Japanese models. Still look great for the money though.

Thats a cracker of a bass. i followed the link to the sellers ebay store. Is he for real because some of those guitars are going at silly money. Has everyone had good dealings with him because if so I have my eye on a reissue 53 P. I fancy going for a bit of a Sting vibe. Again lovely basses, how come there is never anything about these models on the fender site?

Because they are made for the Japanese domestic market only. They are on the fender japan website, although it's hard to make much sense of that. Note that the shipping isn't cheap and you could pay import duty on it too.
