Frequently Asked Questions

The 7/8 size naturally has a slightly less powerful bass response than the full size, but maintains a similar overall tonal profile with a focus on clarity.
It’s a well-executed imitation, aiming for a vintage aesthetic, but it's not a historically accurate antique. The varnish application and subtle figuring are convincing, but it’s clearly a modern construction.
A bow with medium stiffness and good responsiveness is ideal; something that can handle a variety of playing styles and bring out the cello's nuanced tone without overpowering it.
