Our Bianca cello is crafted in Romania using choice Carpathian spruce tops and and flamed maple. The oil varnish is delicately shaded and applied by hand. Final professional set-up is performed in our shop in Ann Arbor, including installation of Helicore strings and a Wittner alloy tailpiece. This is a responsive cello with a deep, full-spectrum tone.

Want to try out a cello? Shar's In-Home Trial Program is safe, easy, and risk-free. You can try out a cello for a 7-10 day period with no deposit, and no obligation to purchase, just a low $80 shipping fee which covers round-trip shipping to and from. After trying our cellos, though, most players decide to keep them for life. Give us a call, we're all string players, and we can discuss which cello is best suited to your needs: 866-742-7270.

    A Real Bargain

    I have been playing cello for over twenty years, and I play in a community orchestra. I purchased this cello over 5 years ago and have been very pleased with the quality of it.
