garbev Posted January 27, 2008 Posted January 27, 2008 Hello All, After a great deal of soul searching I've decided to trade/sell my Bacchus 5, Fretless having acquired a 5 Fretless Zoot care of Greene King...Cheers Peter. The Baccus is an 05 Woodline Turbo 5, black nitro finish with matching headstock. The body is Alder with a Maple neck and lined Rosewood fingerboard. I've added a J-Retro so the tonal range is amazing, kept the Bacchus single coil P/ups 'cos I prefer s/c tone and attack. String spacing is 17mm at the bridge. I was considering getting this bass fretted, that would a waste of a beautiful fretless. The Bacchus is in excellent condition and comes with a Bacchus gig bag. The price for a straight sale would be around £700. I'm mainly looking to trade this bass for good quality fretted 4 pref a Jazz. I would be particularly interested in a '70's reissue Jazz, US or Japanese, with cash either way, but I'm open to suggestions. There is a possibility of a fretted 5 being considered, I'm made some inquiries about my custom build and 20-30 weeks is going to drive me LOOPY! If anyone's interested you are welcome to try the bass, or I don't mind meeting up halfway to do a deal! I'm based in Sunny(well today anyway!) South Wales. Some Pix: Thanks, Gary.

garbev Posted January 27, 2008 Author Posted January 27, 2008 I've been asked to post some 'Full' shots of the Bacchus. Here they are. The body is unmarked, the flash reflections don't do it any justice!! Gary.
