Just thought I'd share. Apologies if this is old news, but it's the first time I'm seeing this. It seems only available in Japan though.

Dang! That is NICE. If they made an Aerodyne P5, I would be ALL OVER THAT.

5-String Aerodyne! Very cool.

I don't understand why this is called an Aerodyne and not just a Jazz. I thought Aerodynes were always a PJ config.

Not at all, Aerodyne refers to the body shape.

that would make me happy in pants.

If the low B was solid, I'd be all over that too. So classy looking!!

1 more string and i would be on that like a rash.

That's a good point. Since this is the first time any of us heard of a 5-string Aerodyne, I have to assume that none of us played it. Do we have TB members from Japan that can go to a store & test it for us?

The Aerodynes look fairly typical head on, but have a sleek, tapered shape when viewed from the side, correct?

I live in Japan and am always scouting for basses. I've NEVER seen an Aerodyne 5 string. I'll keep my eyes out though.

***** Well, I've just found four of them, all jazz basses, all black! About $1200 here in Japan.

..........Also, ALDER body. Many of the Aerodyne models use basswood.

Are you saying he might be able to get them to make an Aerodyne Precision 5 (all passive, please)? I might have to get in the line that seems to be forming here....
