【outlet】Bacchus / WL524-H.J.FREAKS BLUS 4.425kg #CI02210【GIB Yokohama】

Bacchus is a Japanese brand based in Nagano.

It is a brand under Divider, which owns a large guitar factory called Asuka Factory, and the high quality of the products, which comes from the factory itself, is appreciated by many musicians.

This model is the signature model of Korean bassist H. J. FREAKS.
It will be included in the Japan Tune-up series, which was newly created with the aim of high quality.

The Japan Tune-up series is manufactured overseas, and the nut adjustment, fret grinding, edge processing, etc. are done domestically.

This aims to keep the price low while maintaining high quality, and to be comparable to the top quality Japanese products in every aspect.

I actually saw the work being done at Divider's workshop in Nagano, and the way each guitar is carefully finished is no different from the top-of-the-line HANDMADE series.

The manufacturing itself is done in Indonesia.

It is no exaggeration to say that Indonesia is currently the most highly regarded guitar manufacturing country in the world, and in addition to Yamaha, many other top guitar brands entrust their manufacturing to Indonesia (CORT and others have factories there).

The Bacchus brand is really good at quality control in manufacturing in Asia.

Musicians living in Japan who can easily buy this brand are lucky.

Now, the basic design of this model is based on the JB motif, but its main feature is that it has a wide range of 24 frets.
It is based on a traditional body shape, but has a more modern arrangement while ensuring playability in the high positions.

Roasted maple is used for the neck and fingerboard.
This is also called thermowood.

Thermowood, which was put into practical use in the musical instrument field by the Japanese company Sago, was originally used in Finland as a building material for saunas.

Thermowood is valuable as a wood that is resistant to high temperatures and humidity, and its usefulness for musical instruments is clear from the fact that it is used by top manufacturers such as Sadowsky and Suhr.

It seems that a certain amount of thermowood is discarded due to its processing.

Perhaps, even instruments that are likely to warp in the future will be played here.

The sound has a strong, mature nuance.

The body is alder.

Equipped with original PU and preamp.

There are sufficient controls, including volume/tone, balancer, treble, middle, bass, mute switch, and preamp bypass switch.

The fact that it is a top jack is also a very important point, and this shows the attention to detail of H. J. FREAKS, who is usually active as a serious musician.

This is an outlet product.
There may be scratches.
