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...)

the one who did that bridge thing should be boiled.

Holy mackerel, this 5 strings ! Is that 6 a "Duke" model? Thanx very much for your feedback about size/PU.

For the record i had a little tchat with a guy from https://japanguitar-handmade.com/fr/ , he said free shipping for the UK, basses are both in their french stock or japanese stock. Shipping from France is about 3 days, japan 15 to 30 days. Any one had any experience with those peoples ? This burled top is quiet lovely.

😍

True but if this guy is using one of them it may worth a try...

yeah that's odd...they're supposed to be 100% handmade. May be tru when you look at this :

update about https://japanguitar-handmade.com/fr/ it's a French company but they do ship to UK for free. Looks trustworthy.

I mean, this is stunning !

Ok thanks for the infos ! Looks like now the only way to get your hands on those basses is to order one from there: https://japanguitar-handmade.com/fr/ I'll keep diggin...

Ok,, seems like they're using their own PU nowaday... Where did you get yours ?

😂

Hey, anyone recently tried on of these Bacchus basses (https://bacchus-guitar.com/bacchus-eb-search) ? Seems like nice instruments. Any advice about built quality/sound ?

MIJ Bacchus maybe. Add one, sound awesome and play like butter. 1500£ is what they asked for their high-end models.
