Aerodyne Bass?

[shoebox22]

Saw one of these last night but didn't have time to get my hands on it. Anybody tried one?

Intriguing as hell and a real beauty in person. :bug

[Motojunkie]

I love the contouring of the body and feel of them, but haven't heard one. The one that I played was set up horribly, so I wasn't too anxious to try it out. I like the pup config too - P/J is a good combo imo.


I'm intrigued by them also, but I know that at least one trusted board member doesn't like them.

[shoebox22]

Still haven't had a chance to play one.

Better get'cha a pair of Versace pumps to match that.

[shoebox22]

Oh, I dunno. I thought a denim mini and white halter would be fine. Kinda keep it simple.

It cries out for long bare legs though, don'tcha think? I may be too short to play it.

[Rickenjangle]

Long bare legs, short bare legs...heck, as long as they're not hairy and so long as they're attached to a female, it's all good to me.

For some reason, chick bass players are one of my weaknesses. Not terribly PC of me, I know, but what can I say? I know what I like.

I yam what I yam.

It looks very nice. Very curvy.

I'd probably get lost if it doesnt have fret markers.

[Rickenjangle]

frets? who needs 'em? Just more things to get in the way and make the strings sound all rattly.

I believe the aerodyne has fret dots on the side of the neck.

[shoebox22]

I at least got to hold one of these beauties. Lite but a trifle neck heavy. Didn't have a chance to hear it as there was a plethora of dudes using up the amps.

[doc540]

plethora of dudes

[shoebox22]

You have my permission to use it in a song.

That will be 25 cents. Thanks. :hee

plethora of dudes

Band name!

[shoebox22]

OK, I'll bite.

Why?

[Motojunkie]

Why? Because it doesn't say "Alembic" on it.

You must not have realized that Spose is a "gear snob of the highest order".

:)

[Rickenjangle]

I tried one yesterday (fretless)
I'll pass :)

Pass wind?

Fretless isn't for everyone, that's for certain.

[Rickenjangle]

I'm sure you can play rings around me, fretted OR fretless, Spose, it wasn't meant as a putdown. I'm a mere hobbyist on that there instrument with the 4 fat strings.

[chuckocaster]

4? mine only has 3. i guess i'm way out of the loop.

i must say though, i really do like the styling of those basses. i'll pass myself. and before you ask, i'm a single passive pup, two knob (both on 10) type of bass guy.
