The Lowdown:
Our Deluxe Cello produces a rich, deep and even tone with good response and superior projection, making it ideal both for progressing players as well as beginners who want to learn on a high quality instrument.
The music resource for education magazine 'ZONE' recently published a review of the 4/4 version of this instrument (by Andrew Bound):
"I have to admit that the cello, once unpackaged, looked more impressive in appearance than I had been expecting . . . . . . the actual grain and flaming looked attractive and elicited the 'cool' seal of approval from pupils seeing it for the first time."
"Tonally, the cello performed very well, proving to be free from the dreaded 'wolf notes' so often found in cheaper instruments."
"Well built and well presented, these instruments should encourage those young cellists fortunate enough to play them. After all, the better the initial experience a pupil has, the more likely they are to succeed in the long term."
"The deluxe model represents good value to either music services or individuals looking for a solid wood instrument"
