Brad Freiheit is a luthier who builds the most exquisite stringed instruments. We talk about how his humble beginnings ripping apart his first Kent guitar in grade nine led to the genesis of Freiheit guitars and he explains how the skills he refined working as a pattern maker in a foundry brought his guitar building to a new level. We dig into his musical history and he tells stories from playing the circuit in Southern Ontario and he shares how his fanatical devotion to perfection in his guitar building is an extension of his take on life.

“Everything I do is based on trying to get as much quality of life out of this particular activity or event. Because let's face it, life can be tough and we gotta field some bullshit. And so if you gotta field the bullshit, try and counteract it with as much good stuff as possible. This is an exclusive thing: I am going to pour three months of my personal self, all in, emotionally invested. I'm a kook with the perfection. Making a difference for somebody by crafting an instrument that changes and takes their playing to a new level. It advances them because problems have been solved and things have been resolved for them. That's all right for me, I'm pretty happy with that. To me, I call that success.”
