Good Cello for Students

Hi, I just purchased this Cello for my son who is in his first year of Middle School Orchestra. I found the price very affordable and the condition/quality of the instrument to be excellent. This is a good Cello for students who are taking lessons. When I did the math, I found this purchase to be a better value than renting a Cello with insurance from the local music store. Here is a example from my local music store's rental prices. Rates were $67 for the 1st 3 months, then $50 per month there after. Plus insurance of $8 per month. Therefore if school is in session for 9 months, I was looking at $367 for the school year (Not counting Insurance). Mind you that's just for the Cello. No extra's like extra case, strings or rosin would come with your rental. However that's just my opinion, what do I know? So I made a appointment to meet with my son's Orchestra teacher. She confirmed it was the correct size (4/4), setup the bridge, tuned the instrument, and stated that it met her standards for the class as well as informed me that it was a great value for the price we paid, plus the instrument had great sound. With proper care, it should last him the rest of his school years. Well at least till college. :)

FANTASTIC!

Cello came 4 days early in a beautiful hard case! It was my first time ever touching a cello and the bridge was extremely simple to assemble. The cello is absolutely beautiful and very well made, perfect for anyone~ The sound is very smooth and lovely. I recommend this very much! I will definitely be buying from Cecilio again~

Fabulous Instrument

I just got this instrument about 20 minutes before the UPS was going to close which was nice but anyways, just utterly fabulous instrument, what you get is all you need. No need for super sensitive strings or anything and the bow is more than good enough for this packaged price. I took the instrument out and UNLIKE OTHERS used my brain and wondered why would they not set the bridge? hmmm MAYBE TO PREVENT DAMAGE TO THE AMAZING INSTRUMENT. So i set the bridge pretty easily with help from my mom since i didn't feel comfortable tightening the strings on the finger board and just slipped the bridge in the center the the f-holes, you'll notice little notches in the center on the f-holes and just put the bridge their but remember to place it a bit closer to the soundpost which is on the left side of the instrument and also tilt the bridge a bit backwards so when you tighten the strings it doesn't bend the bridge. So then i rosined the bow for about 20 minutes and tried the instrument. Pure bliss, beautiful sound but i did have a problem, which was my own fault. Before tuning the strings, if you feel that its a little harder than it should be go to the tailpiece and check where the end the of string is. You'll see a little cylinder that holds the string in place, make sure its not in some sort of funny angle, make sure its nice and even and flat because I broke a string like that, thank amazon for the amazing deal that comes with a NEW SET OF STRINGS. So yea over all great, and I will be reporting back once I go to my teacher and see if he approves of the instrument he's very very good and well known so if he approves of it any teacher will. Oh and sorry Amazon for the 4 out 5, I gave that because I kinda disliked the Cecilio logo/name on the back on the instrument, unappealing :P but in general great.
