Bacchus Handmade Series Jazz Bass - Transparent White/Blonde

This is a handmade Aska Japan bass with some really cool design elements. White Marine Pearl bindings on (White Blonde Sunburst) Ash body and maple neck. The body binding looks aged-vintage while the neck binding is a bit lighter. Tone knobs also have matching tops to increase the effect. The bass is functionally like new...it’s straight with fully functioning truss rod, no discernible fret wear, and only minor dings. There are chips on the top of the headstock and minor dings near the strap button which prevent it from being “mint.” This bass has very low miles. It plays very well, sounds GREAT and has that “fully loaded” feel to it.

“BACCHUS Hand Made Series - Japan

Bacchus Handmade guitars are hand crafted by the most experienced Japanese luthiers at our Aska factory located in Nagano, Japan. Most other guitar manufacturers use factory-line NC routers in order to reduce costs and increase production. However, we believe the selection of tone wood for guitars and basses must be processed and carved by human hand. Our reasoning is simple: all wood materials differ from each other, even among the same species of wood. We need to be able to recognize these difference in order to create quality instruments. The ways in which the wood age, the ways they process, the ways they behave―recognizing these factors require an experienced eye of a skilled luthier. Simply put, our hand crafted guitars produce supreme sounds that will last you a lifetime.”
