The WJB-1MS-DX-AC RSM\/M and WJB-5-1MS-DX-AC RSM\/M from the Bacchus Universe Series will be unveiled at this year\u2019s Special Showcase. These new models represent a fresh offering from the Universe Series, incorporating the first-ever multi-scale<\/strong> design for Bacchus while blending the specifications of the \u201cDX\u201d models, such as stainless steel frets and a heel-less cut.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Design Incorporating Multiscale Approaches<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

As the name \u201cmulti-scale\u201d suggests, this refers to the use of multiple scales within a single model. While standard basses typically have a uniform scale length across all strings, this model features a 34-inch scale on the first string, with the scale length gradually increasing toward the lower strings, culminating in a 35-inch scale on the lowest string.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This creates firmer tension on the lower strings, improving stability when fretting. On the 4th string, this allows you to play while maintaining just the right amount of tension, even when using drop tunings like Drop D, and on the 5th string, it ensures stability for the low B note.

On this bass, the scale length of the high-string side is set to 34 inches, the same as a standard bass, to ensure consistent string tension throughout. Additionally, the design maintains a look similar to that of a traditional bass so that even players accustomed to standard basses can play it without feeling out of place.
These features make it a reliable choice as an entry-level multi-scale bass.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Active Specification<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This model features an active design to accommodate a wide range of sound-shaping needs. Controls include volume, a balancer, and a 2-band EQ; the EQ allows you to adjust the treble and bass ranges, enabling you to tailor your tone to your genre and playing style.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Equipped with a single-string bridge<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

To accommodate the multi-scale design, the guitar features a single-string bridge that allows for individual scale length adjustment on each string. This independent bridge design strikes a balance between string tension and playability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
