B-Stock Fiddlerman Carbon Fiber Viola Bow (Previous Model)
What does B-stock mean?
A bow is considered "B-stock" if it has a cosmetic imperfection, such as a small scratch, a loose or discolored winding, or if the stick has a very slight curve that will not affect tone production. Each bow has been carefully vetted to be sold as “B-stock” and is a great value at the discounted price.
There is a limited stock of these bows, and each bow may have a different imperfection. Please review the last picture on this listing for examples of bows considered B-stock.

United StatesGreat deal!
These folks always go the extra! Sold as “B-stock”, this bow has no defects I can detect! - true I’m an amateur on viola but I’ve played lots of instruments, in my experience inferior tools make things harder; no such issue here! Shop Fiddlerman with confidence, practice lots and get vaccinated ! ;-)
United StatesExcellent, Inexpensive Bow.
I'm not a professional musician, but i did take private lessons for 12 years, about 20 years ago. I don't have any problems with control or creating tone with this bow, even with Staccato (haven't tried ricochet). If you're not a professional or advanced player, i would highly recommend this bow for value.
United StatesReinforces the quality of their other bows.
I purchased a B-Stock bow as a backup practice bow, and the price was good. It was shipped promptly and packaged very well. I examined it and could not find anything that would clue me in that it is B-Stock. (Maybe B means better?) This bow is nicer than most other bows in use that I see, and I do get compliments on it. It gives me confidence in the attention to quality given by Fiddlerman and reinforces the trust that any bow from Fiddlerman is going to be great!
