Distinctive aerodynamic lines, dazzling finishes, state-of-the-art hardware, and unmistakable silhouettes combine to create guitars that are instantly recognisable, while feeling radically new.

These made-in-Japan guitars inspire with their futuristic style, but the bold and original designs that inspired previous generations really shine through in the Aerodyne Series.

There are five guitars in this series – the Special Stratocaster, Special Stratocaster HSS, Special Telecaster, Special Precision Bass and Special Jazz Bass.

These guitars all feature a sleek new look, with vibrant colours adorning the elegantly bound basswood body and headstock.

They each have a modern “C”-shaped neck, that features a satin finish and a 12” radius that ensures effortless comfort and playability.

The newly designed vintage-voice pickups ensure a classic and faithful sound to the modern looking Aerodyne Series, without sacrificing high performance.

Also newly designed, the five guitars in this series feature Babicz Z-Series bridges, that also contribute towards more tonality, stability, and sustain without sacrificing weight.

The Aerodyne Special Series delivers new pickups, hardware and finishes while retaining the distinctive style of its aerodynamic predecessors, and will be available this month.
