From the listing

Seller's description

One of FCGR’s flagship original series! A used Dulake Flat has just arrived! The Dulake is Freedom Custom Guitar Research’s first original model. Unlike the standard curved-top design, this particular instrument features a flat body, making it a striking model that combines a fat low end with crisp, refined high frequencies. The body is a 2-piece Wenge/Alder construction with a laminated maple top. It features a vintage-style FCGR U-shaped maple neck—a signature Freedom design—paired with a rosewood fingerboard. The fingerboard is fitted with 24 stainless steel frets—Freedom’s most standard “WARM” type. It is equipped with the manufacturer’s original humbucker-style pickup. While powerful—as one would expect from a humbucker—it offers a well-defined tone and excellent versatility. The preamp is also the manufacturer’s original design, featuring a 2-band EQ with Bass and Treble controls. Its wide frequency range and very natural equalization are particularly appealing. Another essential feature of this model is, of course, the ARIMIZO & One Point Joint. This is Freedom’s patented original neck joint. It has gained popularity as a system that makes it easy to perform “torque management”—adjusting the sound by controlling how tightly the screws are tightened.Now a staple of the Freedom lineup, this system is featured on the Dulake and Rhino bass models, as well as the Hydra guitar—and, of course, on this particular instrument. When you try it out, you’ll definitely notice the difference. As an incredibly convenient system that allows you to adjust the sound character depending on the environment—whether it’s a live performance or a recording session—this is one feature you really need to experience for yourself. While there are some minor scuffs and slight tarnish on the gold hardware—signs of age—the instrument is overall in very good condition. The neck is in good condition and the truss rod functions smoothly. This instrument offers outstanding playability and
