【new】Freedom Custom Guitar Research / C.S.R.S PJ 5st BLK 4.285kg #1902L【GIB Yokohama】

Freedom is a Tokyo-based guitar workshop that has garnered overwhelming support from professional musicians in Japan and has recently begun to make a name for itself overseas.

Originally acclaimed for its repair work, the workshop now focuses on manufacturing. Their works are beloved by many musicians for their high quality and rational design sense.

All of the brand's basses are manufactured in Tokyo.

The wood used is carefully selected through strict quality control, and any wood that does not meet the standards is not used in their products.

It is precisely because they are a small workshop that this level of quality control is possible.
In this sense, too, the quality is fundamentally different from that of wood made in large factories.

This model is a PJ model specially ordered from GIB.

What is particularly noteworthy is that it is extremely easy to play and has the sound that musicians truly desire for the PJ style.

The bass was ordered in the classic configuration of an alder body and Indian rosewood fingerboard.

The style is essentially traditional, and the carefully crafted neck, featuring stainless steel frets, is truly top-notch.

It doesn't have a particularly unique shape, but that's what makes its high basic quality stand out.

The sharp response and speedy, wide-range sound also contribute to its excellent playability.

A major issue with PJ basses is the unique sound they produce when mixed.

PJ fans may have come to accept this fact.

Many people have a negative impression of the out-of-phase nuance.

The Freedom has a solution to this problem.

For the P PU, one of the third-string pole pieces is a dummy, adjusting the balance between the number of turns and the wire length.

For the J PU, higher shielding than usual is used to maintain a neat balance when mixed.

This is extremely reasonable for a PJ-style bass, which cannot cancel noise during mixing.

The color is black with a lacquer finish.

The more you play it, the more the look and sound will change.

Personally, I don't think lacquer or urethane is superior, but I requested a lacquer finish so that players can enjoy the changes and enjoy using it for a long time.

Not many brands can produce 5-string PJ basses of this quality.

That's why I think it's beloved by so many working musicians.

This is a masterpiece that combines PJ style with timeless Fender style.

Highly recommended.

GIB craftsmen will adjust it for ease of play before shipping it to you.
