1. Great Sound:
Crafted from premium spruce, the cello's top offers enhanced toughness, resulting in a denser and more resonant sound. The maple back, with its distinct texture, not only adds an elegant touch but also effectively absorbs noise and minimizes vibration transmission.
2. Excellent Materials:
Made of premium ebony, our fingerboard is dense and solid, enabling it to withstand the stress of continuous daily use while providing hours of comfortable play during jam sessions. The ebony tailpiece effectively balances string tension, complemented by four fine-tuning screws for effortless tuning.
3. Maple Scroll:
Meticulously crafted from premium solid maple, this scroll showcases a classic design with smooth lines. The scroll's color gradient appears more natural and enhances the fantastic hand-feeling due to its meticulous hand-painted finish.
4. F-Holes:
In contrast to regular f-holes, our f-holes undergo meticulous artificial polishing. This process ensures not only round and refined workmanship but also enhances the sound projection, creating a better and softer tonal effect.
5. Attention to Detail:
Our cello bow is expertly crafted using superior white horsehair, offering enhanced elasticity and faster sound transmission. Unlike ordinary cello strings, our exceptional steel strings are specifically designed to alleviate finger fatigue and provide a more comfortable playing experience.
6. Custom-designed Bag:
The bag is specifically tailored to fit the shape of the 4/4 cello and features a generous 7mm cotton padding, providing enhanced protection for your precious instrument. Additionally, it features two spacious pockets to keep your rosin, extra strings, bow, and other accessories neatly organized.
NOTE:
1. The bridge will not be pre-set to prevent damage during shipping.
2. Please handle the tuning pegs with care and push them in when adjusting.
3. Rub the rosin powder on the bow before playing as the new bow may not produce sound.
Setting the Bridge
Begin by loosening the strings slightly. Then place the bridge in the middle of the F holes, with the left side higher and the right side lower. Insert the strings into the corresponding grooves on the bridge and gradually tighten the cello strings.
Tuning Peg
To tune the cello, tighten the pegs carefully and ensure that they are not too loose or too tight. Tune the strings in the order of A-D-G-C, and gently push the pegs in after tuning.
End Stopper
To achieve the ideal playing position, adjust the height of your cello using the endpin while sitting in a comfortable posture with your feet flat on the floor and the cello positioned between your legs.
Care and Maintenance
It is important to clean your cello after each use. Keep a lint-free cloth inside your bag and use it to wipe off any rosin dust and dirt from your instrument. Pay close attention to the fingerboard and the top of the instrument. Regular cleaning will make a noticeable difference in the overall sound of your cello.
How to Rosin a Cello Bow:
1. Start by scraping one side of the new rosin with a hard object to facilitate rosin attachment to the bow.
2. Rub the bow head first, then rub it down to the end to ensure the same thickness.
3. Rub the bow back and forth several times, then place it on the strings and check for a smooth and refined sound.
4. Remember to regularly rosin your bow to maintain optimal bowing performance and sound quality.
