A Bacchus "Japan Tune-up" Designed for Stage and Modern Playing

The JT TACTICS24-QM RSM/M belongs to the Japan Tune-up series, a "performance"-oriented line emphasizing ergonomics, reliability, and sonic versatility. With its reimagined LP shape, 24 frets, and Wilkinson vibrato, it targets guitarists seeking a modern feel without sacrificing the character of a single-cut guitar.

Who the TACTICS24-QM Is For: From Studio to Concerts

This guitar is especially suited for intermediate to advanced players: it remains accessible, but its features (24 frets, vibrato, coil tap, stable hardware) truly shine when exploring precise settings and quick tone changes. It fits well with styles alternating between heavy riffs and clear phrasing: modern rock, pop, punchy funk, fusion, hard rock, and anything requiring good articulation.

A Defined and Punchy Sound, with Coil Tap to Broaden the Spectrum

The core of its character comes from the humbucker: in standard mode, it delivers a denser sound with a strong output level, ideal for distortion, palm-muting, and leads that need to stay present in the mix. The coil tap switches to a clearer, sharper register, useful for more open rhythms, arpeggios, or to approach more incisive attacks.

The combination of maple neck and fingerboard promotes a fast attack and clear definition, with more pronounced highs and well-controlled lows. The quilted maple top contributes to this sense of precision and immediate response, while the presence of walnut adds warmth and balance, helping to avoid an overly bright tone. The Wilkinson WVS50IIK vibrato, combined with the GraphTech TUSQ XL nut and locking tuners, helps maintain stable tuning even with heavy vibrato use.

Recommended Compatible Accessories

The guitar comes factory-strung with Elixir NANOWEB Light 010-046 strings: if you appreciate the balance between flexibility, tuning stability, and vibrato comfort, sticking with this gauge (010-046) is a safe choice when replacing strings. The included gig bag and adjustment wrench provide the essentials for transporting the instrument and handling basic setups.
