Be careful with the 'free shipping' bit because there's always duty to pay. In the past I have a feeling Japan Direct have undervalued items in order to avoid taxes which is risky at best.

I've had two Bacchus basses that I imported myself from Japan. With wonderful. The Jazz had no forearm cutaway so was a bit uncomfortable to play seated but the TwentyFour I had next was just sublime in every way. It had the 'Smith' sound in spades and was just great to play. I sold both when I rationalised my collection down to four strings, then one four string.

I have some recordings made with both basses I'll dig out.

Cheers

About the duty: in your case it was a Japan-UK delivery so yes, duty around 20%. Those guys are in France so no duty (until december i guess...)
