Freedom is a guitar studio in Tokyo that has gained overwhelming support from professional musicians in Japan, and in recent years its name has begun to spread overseas.
Originally highly praised for their repair work, they are now focusing on manufacturing, and their work is loved by many musicians for its high quality and rational design sense.
All of the brand's bases are manufactured in Tokyo.
The wood we use is carefully selected through strict quality control, and if the wood we purchase does not meet our standards, we will not use it in our products.
I believe that this kind of quality control is possible because we are a small workshop.
Even in this sense, the quality is fundamentally different from those made in large-scale factories.
This model is a PJ model specially ordered from GIB.
What I would like to highlight is that it is extremely easy to play and has the sound that musicians really want from a PJ.
The neck is carefully crafted using stainless steel frets while respecting Fender etiquette, and is truly of the highest quality.
It doesn't have a particularly unique shape, but that's why its basic quality stands out.
The sharp response, speedy, and wide-range sound probably contributes to this high level of playability.
A big problem with PJ basses may be the fact that PJ fans are starting to accept the unique sound when mixed.
The nuance that the phase is strangely twisted is sometimes negative.
Not many brands have their own solution to that balance, but Freedom does.
For P PU, the balance between the number of turns and the length of the wire is adjusted by using one 3-string pole piece as a dummy.
The J PU has been adjusted to maintain a neat balance during mixing by making the shield higher than usual.
This point is very reasonable for PJ-style basses that cannot cancel noise in the mix.
The color is a dark burgundy and it is finished with lacquer.
The more you play with it, the more you'll notice that the look will change along with the sound.
Personally, I don't think that lacquer or urethane is better than the other, but I asked them to paint it with lacquer because I wanted them to enjoy the change and use it for a long time.
There are not many brands that can make a 5-string PJ bass with this level of quality.
I think that's why so many working musicians love it.
A gem that has the style of PJ, but has value that conforms to universal Fender manners.
I recommend it without any complaints.
