About B-Stock

Every B-stock instrument in one place, across Orff, ukuleles and hand drums.

B-stock means an instrument that is new but not perfect on paper. It has been unboxed and put on display, used once and returned, has a small cosmetic mark that does not affect how it plays, or is new but needed a minor repair or a replacement part before going back on the shelf.

Every one is hand-picked and inspected before it is listed, and it plays to the same standard as a full-price instrument. What you are giving up is the box and an unmarked finish.

The Orff side covers SUZUKI and EMUS soprano, alto and bass xylophones in wood and fibreglass, including white and rainbow bars, soprano, alto and bass metallophones, soprano and alto glockenspiels, an EMUS contrabass bar and SUZUKI contrabass and sub-contrabass bars.

The ukulele side covers THE CLASSIC concert and tenor, including older-style bodies.

The drum side covers GMP AirDrums in rope-tuned and lug-tuned models and stackable and tunable tubolos.

Stock changes as instruments come and go, so what is listed is what is on the shelf.
