【used】Freedom Custom Guitar Research / RHINO 4st #17040101 4.235kg【GIB Yokohama】

"Freedom" is a Tokyo-based guitar workshop that has gained overwhelming support from professional musicians in Japan, and in recent years their name has begun to spread overseas as well.

Originally highly regarded for their repair work, they now focus on manufacturing, and their products are loved by many musicians for their high quality and rational sense of design.

All of the brand's basses are manufactured in Tokyo.
The wood used is carefully selected through strict quality control, and no wood that does not meet their standards is used in their products.

This quality control is only possible because we are a small workshop.
In this sense, the quality of our products is fundamentally different from those made in large factories.

This model is RHINO, a more developed version of JB.

Basically, it is designed in the style of JB, but modern updates have been made in various parts.

For example, the ARIMIZO & One Point Joint is the best example.
The joint has a special shape for both the neck and body, with a different ground contact area.
Also, this joint uses only one bolt, and the tone changes as the bolt is loosened or tightened.
The change is like going back and forth between the vintage era and the modern era.

The pickups are Bell Bottom, newly developed for this joint.
It gives a fat tone by itself and a nice midrange in the mix.
It is an excellent design that allows you to enjoy the full flavor of the JB without being too much or not enough.

The original preamp is also included, with a 2-band EQ.
Active circuits are often described as cold sounding, but if you play this you will understand that this is not the case.
It is warm, powerful, and fast.
This is the ideal active JB tone.

Freedom is one of the world's top Fender makers.
This is their idea of a modern JB.
Please look forward to it.

The truss rod is a little stiff, but we have confirmed that it works about 90 degrees.
