High quality materials
This instrument is made out of the solid tonewoods, maple and spruce. These woods are selected specially for their tonal properties. The bass is carved on the front with spruce and back and sides are carved from maple. Maple is a traditional wood used in string instrument construction and is the same wood you'll find on top of the range and antique instruments. The carved front and back is fairly rare on basses at this price as usually they are made of a laminated wood. The fingerboard is made from ebony, this is another sign of quality as cheaper instruments often don't feature ebony fingerboards, ebony construction makes this more durable and offers a superior tone colour. The machine heads are full plate brass ensuring a precise and stable tuning.
Stentor
Stentor are a well known and well regarded string instrument maker, especially amongst teachers and students. You can often find their instruments in school music departments or being recommended by teachers. This is due to their cheap price but good quality and durable construction, making them ideal for these settings. This is the explicit goal of Stentor who believe that every child should have an opportunity to play a musical instrument and that music should be a part of everyone's personal development in life.
