this is from some olds threads and might be of some use
The Bacchus vintage series by deviser was from 1994 until 2004. There were the fender copies and gibson copies both by them. this info was originally fully by Tokai Joe but also posted on TF by greco-burst.
The early years...
Just though I'd chip in. Best home am I've ever had and I've been through a few, tried powerscaling, low wattage valves amp the lot. It even has a nice acoustic setting and you can play a bass through it. THR10C you won't be sorry.

Hi Bliz,
My guess is a 2004 Solid Colour (Black Beauty or GT) LS70 that's had the solid colour stripped from the top and some sort of refinish. The tuners have been changed to Grovers and the knobs replaced etc. Looks like it's got something like a 3 piece plain top and a 3 piece back. The...
