Is it the non serial ebony p90 deal ??
I personally think these non serial bacchus should be called something else since they sem to have different specs to the ones that later got serial numbers. The starter series?? Lol who knows. They all seem to be called the vintage series though. Bacchus just seemed to get better and better as they went along.
Yep, a black LP Custom type with P-90 foot print pickups.
It looks to be mentioned in two different threads with multiple photos that demonstrate a range of attributes.
IMO it has been attributed a model designation incorrectly at least twice, and also with the complete omission of the P-90 designation, which for Bacchus examples a 'S' is typically utilized for soap bar.
Judging from the combined attributes in the photos, IMO it is a BLC-95S BLK,circa 1996/1997.
I'm confident if the neck pickup were removed one would see the off-set/medium tenon typical of the 95 grade Bacchus BLC & BLS types from the era. It should have a two piece back & a two piece top, and the neck should be fairly thin; I would say about ~.850 @ the first fret.
It doesn't have the higher grade attributes associated with a 140 grade anything, which I have seen at least twice in the threads but it is a guitar forum so, those types of errors I suppose are typical also. If someone read that type of info, and was interested in purchasing the guitar, or similar example, they could easily end up paying more, based merely on bad info. Not good.
It is entertaining to see the speculation but at the end of day what we see on the interwebz some times becomes gospel. Funny how that works.
