FRESHMAN
Instruments previously built in Japan during the mid-1960s.
As an inexpensive, entry level guitar, the Freshman trademark is quite apt: a senior, it isn't. In fact, it's not even close to a sophomore! Source: Tony Bacon and Paul Day, The Guru's Guitar Guide. The Freshman brand was reintroduced in the early 2000s as a guitar manufacturer based in England.
