Bacchus BST-2-RSM/M electric guitar

Bacchus BST-2-RSM/M Electric Guitar (Roasted Maple Series)

When traditional lutherie heritage meets modern innovation, truly unique instruments are born. Since its founding in 1977 in Nagano, Japan, DEVISER has built a legendary reputation among passionate musicians. Originally famous for its exceptional acoustic guitars under the Headway brand, the company overcame major historic hardships to introduce BACCHUS in 1991. Today, Deviser steps away from standard mass production to deliver instruments with a genuine soul and their own distinct sonic identity.

The Bacchus BST-2-RSM/M proudly carries this lineage. Offered at a highly competitive price point within the Universe Series, it still reaps all the benefits of Deviser’s strict quality control: every single instrument is thoroughly inspected, adjusted, and set up at the Deviser technical center in Matsumoto, Japan, before shipping to Europe. You receive a guitar that is ready to play right out of the box.

The Secret to the Tone: Roasted Maple

The true superpower of this guitar lies in its Roasted Maple neck and fretboard. This high-end technical process involves treating the wood at very high temperatures, volatilizing the moisture and natural oils embedded in the fibers.

The result? A neck with reinforced structural stability, highly resistant to humidity and temperature changes. More importantly, this treatment gives the guitar a unique organic resonance and a mature, woody, vintage-like tone reminiscent of an instrument that has aged and improved over decades of play. Visually, the neck displays a gorgeous, deep golden hue that complements the mint-colored pickguard and knobs perfectly for an irresistible retro look.

Absolute Versatility and Balanced Lutherie

The body, crafted from selected Hardwood, provides a solid acoustic foundation with natural sustain and an excellent weight balance whether playing standing up or sitting down.

On the electronics side, the SSH (Single-Single-Humbucker) pickup layout breaks down all genre barriers. The two single-coils deliver crisp, dynamic, and clear tones perfect for funk, blues, or pop. The bridge humbucker supplies the necessary power for rock and hard-rock overdrives. Thanks to the integrated Coil Tap switch on the tone knob, you can split the humbucker into a single-coil instantly, offering an infinite sonic palette to shape your own musical signature.

Designed for Player Comfort

With a standard 648mm scale length and a 42mm nut width, the neck shape feels natural and immediately comfortable. The nickel silver frets are carefully finished, ensuring smooth string bends and effortless movement across the fretboard. The traditional synchronized tremolo allows you to add expressive nuances to your licks while maintaining reliable tuning stability thanks to the Rotomatic-type machine heads.
