The Stentor Student I double bass is a beautifully made beginner instrument. Unlike many other student basses on the market, this instrument is hand carved using only solid tonewoods and natural glues to produce the best possible quality of sound for students on a budget. This is an instrument that offers reliable, consistent performance and good tone, enhancing the learning process for students.
Also included is a composite metal tailpiece with integral adjusters for fine tuning, and inlaid purfling to the top and bottom of the instrument. Purfling (strips of wood inlaid to the top and bottom plates of the double bass) is not only decorative, but also means that a crack in the edge of a plate will not spread, or a crack in the front can be glued without removing the plate entirely.
We recommend that this bass would see a beginner through to the middle grades.

Their instruments use spruce fronts and maple back and sides, specifically selected for their tonal qualities.
