Founded in 2002 by Yukihiro Hayashi - an expert with over two decades of experience servicing and owning multiple DUMBLE amplifiers - FREE THE TONE was built on a deep understanding of professional sound systems. From the outset, the company has specialised in designing and producing custom products, pedalboards, and touring systems for Japan’s top guitarists and bassists.
Guided by our philosophy, “THE HOLISTIC APPROACH TO SYSTEM DESIGN”, we look beyond individual components to consider the entire signal chain. Our mission is to create tools that allow musicians to focus entirely on their performance—whether on stage or in the studio—by developing reliable, intuitive gear that removes technical distractions and elevates musical expression.
Through years of hands-on experience and close collaboration with artists, we’ve developed a unique perspective on real-world performance needs. This insight drives every product we create - products that are trusted by professionals and accessible to musicians everywhere.
Each new release reflects our evolving dialogue with users, inspiring fresh ideas and innovations. As we continue to refine our designs, our goal remains unchanged: to help you unlock your best sound and turn your musical vision into reality.
