Freak Guitar Lab
Mattias IA Eklundhのギターブランドフリーク・ギター・ラボついに日本上陸。

First series
ULV
I am very proud to present my own guitar brand "Freak Guitar Lab", manufactured in Sweden at the True Temperament factory.
The first model is called the "Ulv" (derived from the Old Norse word "ulfr" (wolf)) and is produced in 8 and 6 string versions.

Havana Brown
The Ulv guitar has a "Havana Brown" stain and wax applied over the alder body.

Push/push knob
The pickup selector on the Ulv 8 and Ulv 6 is located on the push/push volume knob.

Headstock
The neck is oiled, but we've chosen a more special look for the headstock: the beautiful, glossy headstock of the Ulv model.
We call this "piano black."

Travelling safely
Safe delivery
Extremely sturdy and well crafted custom Freak Guitar Lab hard case, made by Swedish company Wareco.

TT-Frets
True Temperament frets are the best thing that's ever happened to a guitar - once you try them, there's no going back.
