About the Guitar:

Freedom Custom Guitar Research led by Ken Nakayama is a  Japanese based hand-built guitar company. The 13 employees at Freedom Custom Guitar Research produce high-quality products by dividing the production process into two areas; “Tradition” which requires a craftsman’s experience, intuition, and sixth sense and “High Technology” which is used for precision. According to the company’s website, this guitar producing strategy is a golden ratio that will never change. More information at: http://www.freedomcgr.com

Jeff Kollman about this guitar:

"It’s one of the best sounding, best built and most comfortable guitars you’ll ever run across. Vintage soundwith modern options..  lightweight alder body.. Trem stays in tune perfect.. They wind their own pickup as well.

I used it for the Eikichi Yazawa tour in Japan last year. He’s the most famous over there.. We did 5 nights at Budakon. This arist Yazawa is to Japan what Paul McCartney is to the U.K… Insane.."
