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 work is beloved by many musicians for its high quality and rational design sense.
All of the brand's basses are manufactured in Tokyo.
Strict quality control is applied to carefully selected wood, and any wood that does not meet the standards is not used in the products.
This level of quality control is possible precisely because the workshop is small.
In this sense, the quality of their basses is fundamentally different from those made in large factories.
This model is a replica of the JB.
The body features a classic combination of two alder pickups and an Indian rosewood fingerboard.
The pickups are an FCGR Bell-Bottom JB Set.
The bridge is a Tone Shift Bass Bridge, which produces a clearer, more modern sound than the standard model.
The pickguard has been replaced with a wooden one, giving the guitar a chic overall finish.
It has a wide range yet is powerful overall.
That is what makes vintage Fenders so appealing.
This is a wonderful piece that fully embodies that charm while mixing in modern elements like stainless steel frets.
Approximately 70% of the frets remain.
The truss rod is in good condition.
The neck is in good condition.
The body and paint show signs of general scratches, and the pickup cover also has small scratches that appear to have been caused by picking. The neck has dents and paint peeling near the joint. There is also paint peeling near the headstock logo. There are also some cracks, but these only affect the paint and do not affect the wood.
The electrical system is in good condition.
The pickguard has been replaced with a wooden one, likely made of Jacaranda. The strap pin has been replaced.
