Up for sale, a 2022 Fender Aerodyne Special Stratocaster in showroom-clean condition, complete with hangtags. This “Made in Japan” Strat is a sleek, modern iteration of the Aerodyne platform, featuring a “drop top” contoured, bound body with a gloss Chocolate Burst finish, satin-finished Modern C neck profile, 12” fretboard radius, Babicz Z-Series FCH-2 Point Tremolo, and locking tuners.
Tonewoods include a basswood body, maple neck, and slab 22-fret rosewood fretboard, and this Aerodyne Special Strat weighs 7lbs 8oz. The Aerodyne Special single coil pickups are vintage-voiced for classic Strat tonalities, with gutsy midrange-forward snap at the bridge, bold, bell-like sweetness at the neck, and hollow quack at the “in-between” positions on the five-way pickup selector switch. This Aerodyne Special Stratocaster has been professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.
