Bacchus JT Tactics24-QM RSM/M AMBS

The Essentials to Know About the Bacchus JT TACTICS24-QM RSM/M AMBS Guitar

• Immediate versatility: humbucker with coil tap to switch from a powerful register to sharper, more "single-coil" tones.


• Modern comfort: 24 stainless steel frets for increased durability and smooth bends even in the high register.


• Stability and precision: maple neck and fingerboard, fast feel and clear attack.


• Expressiveness: Wilkinson WVS50IIK vibrato for subtle vibratos as well as more pronounced effects.

Japan Tune-up: a TACTICS designed to play "right away," with no compromises

With the JT TACTICS24-QM RSM/M, Bacchus offers a decidedly modern approach: a guitar with a look inspired by the classics, but equipped like a modern stage instrument. In the Japan Tune-up series, the goal is clear: to provide refined playability, effective ergonomics, and technical choices focused on performance, all in a satin Amber Burst finish that highlights the quilted maple grain.

Who is the Bacchus TACTICS24-QM RSM/M for?

This guitar is aimed at intermediate to advanced guitarists who want an instrument capable of covering multiple styles without multiplying guitars. Its LP format will appeal to those who enjoy a "full" grip, while benefiting from modern features: 24 frets, locking tuners, and Wilkinson vibrato. It is also well suited for progressing guitarists seeking a serious, stable, and enjoyable daily instrument.

In terms of styles, the TACTICS24-QM RSM/M is comfortable in rock, pop, fusion, modern blues, and even more demanding contexts (covers, home studio) where quickly switching from a dense sound to a more crystalline tone thanks to the coil tap is appreciated.

A tonal signature between warmth, attack, and flexibility

The tonal foundation relies on an Original Humbucker: generally a thicker sound, with present lows and an ideal level reserve to push an amp or drive pedal. The real asset is the ability to activate the coil tap: this provides a more direct and "airy" response, useful for defined rhythms, arpeggios, or parts that need to sit in a mix without weighing it down.

The maple neck/fingerboard combo delivers a crisp attack and a clear upper spectrum: practical for maintaining precision in distortion, but also for clear tones that remain articulate. The stainless steel frets also contribute to the feeling of clarity under the fingers, with smooth gliding and significantly slower wear compared to traditional frets.

Finally, the Wilkinson vibrato opens up playing options: micro-vibratos, expressive inflections, or more pronounced effects. Combined with a Graph Tech TUSQ XL nut and locking tuners, it contributes to more confident use, especially if you play with dynamic touch or frequent bends.

Recommended compatible accessories

The guitar comes with a gig bag and a setup wrench. To stay in the spirit of the instrument, you can consider a set of strings with the same gauge 10-46 (like the Elixir NANOWEB Light (.010-.046) factory-installed) to maintain the comfort/tuning stability balance. A good quality 6.35 mm jack cable and a microfiber cloth are also good additions for regular use and care of the satin open-pore finish.
