What does B-stock mean?

Every now and then we receive an instrument from our workshop with a visual imperfection. The instrument might have a small nick, scratch or a discoloration in the varnish. These visual issues do not affect the performance or playability of the instrument. However, we would never put these instruments into our regular inventory.

Just like every other Fiddlerman instrument we sell, this instrument is set up to perfection by our talented luthiers and is covered by our lifetime structural warranty.

We have a limited stock of these instruments. Every instrument has a different imperfection. Please find attached pictures for examples of these visual flaws.

Fiddlerman Apprentice Violin Outfit

The Fiddlerman Apprentice violin is quite easily our best performing instrument for the price. It's a great choice for beginners who prefer a more nuanced and developed sound compared to the OB1. You'll fall in love with the expressive capabilities and dynamic range that the Apprentice makes possible.

  • Solid-carved slightly flamed spruce and maple tonewoods
  • 100% ebony fingerboard, pegs & fittings
  • Carbon tailpiece with 4 fine tuners
  • Hand-carved French Despiau or Holstein 1-star Bridge
  • European spruce soundpost from "Alpine Tone Wood"

  • Wood dried a minimum of 5 years
  • Strings: Fiddlerman Synthetic Core Violin Strings
  • Precisely measured string height for easy and comfortable playability
