Well, I am not surprised at the results as it reflects broadly similar results in many areas in respects of test for various items. In this instance, when the instruments were obscured from view the new instrument was rated higher than the Stradivarius! On the otherhand, when both instruments were in view, the results were more even. Unsurprisingly, the Stradivarius stumbled once a priori knowledge was removed and it was judged based on its sound alone. Cloning the sound or basic functions of an old item is the easy part. What cannot be cloned is the fame, more often than not, judgements are formed based on fame not the basic functions.
