B-stock guitars are instruments that come with cosmetic defects and minor playability issues that prevent them from being sold as brand new. These guitars may have imperfections such as scratches, dings, finish flaws, or blemishes on the body, neck, or headstock. Additionally, they might exhibit slight irregularities in playability, like minor fret buzz, slightly high action, or intonation quirks. Despite these flaws, B-stock guitars are fully functional and offer a more affordable option for musicians looking to own a quality instrument without paying the premium price for a flawless model.
With an American Alder body, and one piece maple neck and fingerboard, the V75 features the remarkable Wilkinson WTB bridge. Due to its unique design, the three brass saddles and steel plate provide the traditional tonal response this guitar is famed for, whilst the chamfer points for each string allow the player to accurately intonate the guitar. A pair of matched Wilkinson pickups capture the all the sounds you’d expect to hear. Play on.
