Members ArKay Posted July 11, 2009 Members Share Posted July 11, 2009 Got myself another Bacchus from Japan, ordered from Kurosawa Gakki last Monday, was shipped on Wednesday (due to a problem with EMS) and arrived today. 3 days aren't bad from Tokyo to Germany. It came with a nice, padded Bacchus gigbag and an accesory kit which consists of a foldable non-nitro safe guitar stand, a set of extra strings, 2 picks, a cleaning cloth and a strap. There's no pickguard, but you could install a Gibson one if you wanted to, it's a perfect fit.

Sehr Gut! - W No, Bacchus is a Japanese brand, they are made by Deviser. They still build them by hand, no CNC. http://www.deviser.co.jp/modules/documents/index.php?content_id=11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members jelloman Posted July 11, 2009 Members Share Posted July 11, 2009 I've had Edwards/Bacchus GAS for awhile now... ...how does the Bacchus measure up to the Gibby in size, and does the neck compare to the '50s or '60s profile? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ArKay Posted July 11, 2009 Author Members Share Posted July 11, 2009 I've had Edwards/Bacchus GAS for awhile now......how does the Bacchus measure up to the Gibby in size, and does the neck compare to the '50s or '60s profile? It's the same size and thickness as my '94 LP Standard, fingerboard radius is 280mm (11"), width at nut 42mm. Doesn't feel too skinny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
