Up for sale, a 2011 Fender Aerodyne Jazz Bass model AJB in excellent, 100% original condition and in perfect working order. A “Made in Japan” model uncommon outside of its country of origins, this Aerodyne bass is unique both visually and sonically, combining a PJ pickup configuration and bound, contoured body with the sleek looks and comfortable 1 1/2“ nut width of the Jazz Bass.
Tonewoods include a basswood body, maple neck, and slab rosewood fretboard, and this AJB weighs 9lbs 1oz. The pickups offer both the ample thump and heft of a split coil Precision neck pickup and the midrange cut and articulation of a Jazz pickup at the bridge. This Aerodyne Jazz Bass has been professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 45-100 roundwound strings, comfortable action, and accurate intonation.
