Bacchus BLS59 FM Lemondrop Hand Made Les Paul Style

The '59 Les Paul is the holy grail for many guitarists, and the BLS-59 is the worthy tribute (not replica) from Bacchus. Hard to capture the beauty of this guitar in photograph, it looks even more stunning in the flesh.

Entirely hand crafted, flawless construction and finish with center joined 2 piece mahogany body, and those iconic LP tones that go from How High The Moon to Moonage Daydream. To play it is to love it. Sweet, succulent clean tones and raunchy, thick, sustaining overdriven tones. Even unplugged it sounds like a Les Paul should.

The Bacchus BLS-59 features an African Mahogany body, flame maple top, Indian Rosewood fretboard, CTS pots, and Switchcraft switch.

The BLS59 FM is from the Bacchus Craft Series. This means that the hand-picked seasoned wood was crafted entirely by hand in Bacchus's own workshop in the Philippines, by Bacchus trained luthiers using the same traditional tools and techniques as in the Japanese workshop, before being shipped to Japan for assembly and completion.

About Bacchus

Bacchus produces some of the finest guitars ever made in Japan. Since 1994, Bacchus has fine-tuned its expertise in guitar craft, including everything from the selection of the finest wood to coating & finishing techniques.

While most other guitar manufacturers use factory-line CNC routers even on high end guitars in order to reduce costs and increase production, everything is done by hand at Bacchus. Every piece of wood has its own totally unique characteristics and only by working the wood by hand can an expert luthier create an instrument of the highest quality.
