Bacchus is a Japanese brand based in Nagano.
It is a brand under the Diviser umbrella, which owns a large guitar factory called Asuka Factory, and the high quality of the guitars, which are made in-house, is highly regarded by many musicians.
Bacchus has several series in different price ranges, but the Universe series in particular pursues high cost performance.
The WJB-1DX is a JB model that prioritizes playability and sound quality while keeping the price low.
The body adopts the same Dinky shape as the WOODLINE series.
The neck joint features a heel-less cut and contour processing, ensuring smooth playability in higher positions.
The frets are made of stainless steel, which is highly resistant to wear and contamination.
Since this material is more expensive than nickel, its use in this price range is innovative.
The neck is made of roasted maple.
Roasted maple is a technology originally developed in Finland, and the Kansai-based brand Sago was a pioneer in its adoption for musical instruments.
The material is processed at high temperatures to evaporate moisture and enhance rigidity. Wood that warps during this process is naturally not used.
In two ways, this results in a high-quality product.
Instruments made with roasted maple have a mature sound and a playing feel that feels less like a new instrument in a good way.
Like stainless steel frets, such specifications are not typically adopted in this price range.
This is Bacchus' latest product, achieving hyper-smooth playability.
Please give it a try.
The following GIB mod. options are available for this product.
Jack replacement (Switchcraft) + wire replacement (Belden replacement): +5,000 yen
With the GIB mod., we replace the jack and wire with globally standard components used by top brands like Fender.
