Bacchus Global Series DUKE-CTM (WH) [Selected product at Divisor Business Fair 2023]

Divisor Big Business Meeting 2023 Selected Product

・Start of new “DUKE”
Taking advantage of the natural beauty and natural tones of carefully selected wood. Using the reliable woodworking techniques developed by craftsman Yasuo Momose, who has been with us since our founding in 1977, we aim to create guitars that players can trust with confidence and express themselves as they wish.
The ``Handmade Series'', the flagship line of the Bacchus brand, was launched in earnest in 2000, more than 20 years ago, with this concept in mind. The ``DUKE'' series, including the DUKE-STANDARD, which has been a long-selling model to this day, was born as the first set neck model in the Handmade Series. In recent years, production has not been able to keep up with demand and it has not been possible to supply sufficient quantities to the market, but in order to respond to the voices of users who want DUKE, a new DUKE model will be launched in 2023. Check out the true value of the new DUKE, which incorporates the technology cultivated by Bacchus.

・Arch shape inherited from the Handmade Series
It follows the arch shape of the domestic Handmade Series DUKE model produced at the Asuka factory. The well-constricted curve of the arch adds sharpness to the top of the body, which is the face of the guitar, and the reflections of the polished paint give it a beautiful, tight look.

・Neck angle for optimal playability
In a set neck model, the angle at which the neck is set affects the playability and sound. While reproducing the arch shape and the preparation angle of the domestic Handmade Series DUKE model, we have made minor adjustments to suit the material and design.
This achieves the best balance between a firm attack created by a moderate sense of tension and a rich body sound.

・Deep joint with high vibration transmission properties
Adopts a deep joint method that has a wide bonding area with the body and firmly transmits vibrations. Because the ground contact width is wide, it also has the advantage of making it easier to achieve precision in the preparation angle and woodworking.

・Adjusted body thickness
The body thickness has been adjusted within a range that does not impair the balance of the exterior that is unique to DUKE.
By creating a slightly thinner design, we succeeded in reducing the overall weight of the body, making it easier for even relatively small users to hold, and greatly improving maneuverability.

・Slim neck
Slim U-shaped neck grip. Even players with relatively small hands can press the strings easily, and the smooth left-hand fingering allows them to concentrate on playing.
