As title , I'm communicating with one of the Bacchus supplier about their basses and finalise-ing payment . But the bass went out of stock and I have to wait until the next completed batch . I really like the bass itself , The brand name and how is it made ... It's hand made by the way . I don't mind paying much more for this bass because it's hard to get outside Japan as well.

Or should I just get this Fender and get over with it ? Cheaper and there's stock anytime.

What do you think ? What would you if you were in my shoe ?

Wait for the Bacchus to be completed ? hmm.gif icon_question.gif


P/S : I know , Patience is Virtue and get what you want the most , Not what you can get it now.


Just need some opinions.

How bout in terms of sound bro? I think thats just as, if not more important. Also, do you play live? If u do, u might wanna take note which one is heavier/lighter or more well balanced.

The Bacchus is definitely lighter than the Fender . Tonewise , Bacchus's tone is superior as they have their own pickups and Turbo Switch pick up ( I don't know what is it either ) ...

if its a CIJ or MIA fender go for it, especially those '75 re-issue wth block inlays are the shits and than u can uprade it with a decent hot onboard pre-amp maybe a Audere or something else ;p
