Freedom Custom Guitar Research - A visit (pics and some comments)

Great right up. I'm about to buy one and only have heard super great things about them.Plus they are in high demand and very hard to get.
Which model are you going to get? I have yet to come across another (or even anyone who recognizes mine) one stateside. I think FCGR is still mostly a secret in the USA.

If you follow them on Facebook, you’ll see them make a post that they are temporarily stopping new orders because demand is too high. Only in Japan!
 
Thank you I just purchased a new Jazz bass model with normal head stock CS Retro JB 4string. Boy Fed x has dragged their feet on this one it was shipped on 1-6-26. I heard nothing but great things and have a few friends who are pro player who stated they were great. I did see this temporarily stopping new orders because demand is too high.

It’s painful to wait! Customs is a black box and you never know how long they will take but two weeks seems like a solid middle ground. Keep an eye on the tracking and if it gets stuck reach out to FedEx. Sometimes they need some info (or a big pile of tariff $$$) to move things forward.

You’ll love it. The quality of these instruments is insanely high.
