Otto Ernst Fischer® Bianca Cello

This cello arrived looking nothing like the one pictured. The tone was terrible and it did not resonate. I took it to my luthier who would only put an A string on it t for me since it broke when I tried to tune it. The pegs kept slipping back whenever I tried to tune it. My luthier said this was a very cheap instrument and he would not try to do anything to it. I tried to buy one like it from the Dutch auction but they said they only had one and I could buy another one on their site. I did, for a thousand or so more. I felt this was a bait and switch. They would not allow me to return it for a full refund because it has gone over 30 days. They finally offered me 50% and I pay shipping. It wasn't worth it. I am a long time customer and a teacher. I have referred many students to Shar and I have spent thousands. I am finished dealing with their terrible service.

I am a beginner cellist, but still wanted to upgrade from my beginner cello. I looked for a cello locally, but couldn't find anything that was interesting, and there wasn’t much of a selection. My music teacher suggested Shar Music, and so I went with them and purchased this cello. It's a very nice instrument and so far I am very pleased with it. It came quickly and was packaged very well. The purchasing experience was hassle free with Shar Music. I hope to enjoy this cello for years to come as it is a fine instrument.

A friend recommended sharmusic.com to me when I was shopping for a new cello, and I couldn't be more delighted with my purchase of this cello, and with the helpful recommendations for an appropriate bow and case I received during my telephone order.
This cello has a rich, deep tone and arrived carefully packed and beautifully set up with quality strings. I'm quite thrilled with my new cello, and completely satisfied with my experience with SharMusic.

Greetings,
I originally rented a Franz Hoffmann Prelude Cello and later a Franz Hoffmann Prelude Violin from sharmusic.com. However, the violin did not pan out due to physical limitations. My passion for the cello increased, and I continue learning, studying, and absorbing everything cello related. After a while I began to think about upgrading from the Prelude, and started shopping for a new cello with a warmer deeper tone. I researched and read testimonials. Then I ordered the Bianca. This instrument exceeded my expectations in its beautiful appearance and tone, and I couldn't happier with this cello. The staff at Shar sent the cello in a great hardshell case. "Silvia Ligia" as I have affectionately named her, means "From the Woods, a Beautiful Voice." Silvia, has a rich, deep, vibrant, and beautiful tone. I'm very happy with my new cello, and completely satisfied with my experience with SharMusic.
Thank you.

The sound that comes out is full, warm, and wonderful and it just keeps getting better. I also love the way this cello looks and feels. Shar did a good setup on it and provides excellent customer service. I have no regrets, this cello was an excellent choice.
