Frequently asked questions
What is B-stock and how does it affect playability or tone?
B-stock means the guitar has cosmetic damage (dents, scratches, finish wear) but passes quality control and plays identically to new. Electronics, frets, intonation, and tone are unaffected. Only appearance differs.
Is this guitar suitable for metal and progressive rock?
Yes, both models excel in metal and progressive genres. The Fishman Fluence Modern humbuckers deliver high output, articulate cleans, and aggressive saturation ideal for drop tuning and fast technique.
What's the practical difference in specs between these two?
There is no difference in specs, construction, electronics, or hardware. Both feature identical 24.75" scale, Ultra Thin C neck, Swamp Ash body, Fishman Fluence active pickups, and TonePros bridge. Only cosmetic condition differs.
Will warranty coverage differ between new and B-stock?
B-stock typically carries limited or full manufacturer warranty depending on the retailer's policy, which may be shorter than new-condition instruments. Confirm warranty details before purchasing Product B.
