Up for sale, a 2018 Fender Aerodyne Jazz Bass model AJB in excellent, 100% original condition and in perfect working order, finished in custom color Gunmetal Blue. This “Made in Japan” 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 Aerodyne Jazz Bass weighs 8lbs 13oz. 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, or a “best of both worlds” sound via a combination of the two. This Aerodyne Jazz Bass has been professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 45-105 roundwound strings, easy-playing action, and accurate intonation.
