A 5 string Bacchus in nice condition , think it’s one of the handmade ones, says that on the back of the head, ebony board, nice block pearl inlays and body and neck binding. Truss and bridge really adjustable and truss works lovely. 34 inch scale , recent set of strings . 
 

has slight crack in head from the b tuner but doesn’t go all the way through. I bought it like this and ran some CA glue wood fix, never moved in 7 years I’ve owned it. There is a small piece of binding missing from the bottom of the neck . 
 

I bought this as a passive bass but it never had much power for gigs so I added some nordstrand pickups and a nordy preamp which has livened things up a bit. It’s a lovely thick tone now with ability to get some bright highs using the treble and the tone pot .

 

only selling as I need to clear a few out. 
 

would prefer collection please . 
 

any issues with the add please let me know as it’s my first one !

I have played a handmade Bacchus Woodline 4 string for a couple of years now and I have to say these are bargain prices for the building quality you get. These instruments have great necks and hardware. Highly recommend them if you want a high quality instrument for a comparatively small budget! Bacchus Basses are hidden gems imo.

 

GLWTS!
