Freshman Guitars is a Scottish guitar company launched in 2002, producing acoustic and electric guitars. The guitars are made in China, under supervision from the headquarters in Glasgow, Scotland.

For Tartan Week 2007 in New York, Freshman created a special guitar and it was the limited Black Tartan model. It was introduced by Sandi Thom during the fashion show at the "Dressed To Kilt party" in Manhattan. Actor Sean Connery was there, to talk to Sandi about the new guitar.
