Remove one of the brass screws from the nylon cord and place it in the hole that faces the small end. Bring it through the other hole, which should be facing the bridge's end. re- Attach the screw to the nylon chord and tighten the screws on both ends to adjust the chord's length. When you slip the chord over the end pin and the bottom of the tailpiece is over the saddle, you've reached the correct length. The chord will be stretched, causing the tailpiece to clear the saddle.
Yes, a lighter tailpiece will allow the strings to vibrate more freely, resulting in a louder sound from the cello.

I was in the process of replacing my wife's Yamaha SVC- With cheap Chinese practice strings, 100 Silent Cello can be played. The ball- The string loops were smaller than what was originally on the cello, and I had the ball resting on only one retaining claw of the fine tuner, like an idiot. I re-tightened everything, and the claw simply dislodged itself. This is fantastic. br>br>I contacted Yamaha for assistance, but they were unable to assist me. The SVC- The fine tuners are built into the tailpiece, and Yamaha Japan no longer makes them, so they were unable to assist me. Yamaha, thank you so much! br>br>As a result, I removed the entire tailpiece in the hopes of finding a generic replacement. On the underside of the tailpiece, I discovered a brand and a model number. When I typed it into Amazon, I found the EXACT ITEM, which is this product, indicating that Yamaha does not manufacture the tailpiece for the SVC-100. 100 They only use this tailpiece, and nothing in their parts breakdown manual or support manual mentions it. br>br>As a result, my wife's cello is now fully repaired at a fraction of the cost I had anticipated. Thank you so much, Amazon!.
I'm not a luthier; I'm just a mom trying to save money by repairing her daughter's cello herself rather than paying someone else to do it. Having said that, it was a huge success. The rattle in her cello was eliminated after she replaced the tailpiece. This was simple to set up, and the fine tuners functioned flawlessly. The only disadvantage is that the cello must be re-tuned, which I believe will be the case whenever this piece is replaced. tuned in on a regular basis This, I'm hoping, will no longer be the case once all of the stretching and settling in has taken place. Aside from that, it was a good product that performed admirably.
Heavy-duty construction. The tailpiece is fantastic. Extremely durable, simple to set up, and tune. The tailgut is quite thick and takes some time to 'break in,' but after about a week, everything is working and sounding great.
My grand daughter's old student cello was replaced with a nice upscale 4/4 cello, which greatly improved her sound. We added some fine tuners to the existing tailpiece because it was a little difficult to tune, but we didn't notice any significant improvement in performance. When we asked one of our local luthiers what we could do to improve the instrument, he recommended two things: a Wittner tailpiece and a carbon fiber bow. On both counts, there has been a significant improvement. I started with the tailpiece, which was extremely simple to set up and tune. This is far superior to the standard tailpiece or the fine tuners that can be purchased separately. Wittner offers a high-quality product at an affordable price. I experimented with the carbon fiber bow and discovered that it was easier to play and produced a better sound. This is a fantastic way to improve your instrument's performance.
This tailpiece is exactly what it says on the package. I did some YouTube research and discovered that the tailgut was stiff and would need to be stretched and held in tune for a few days. To replace the one that came with my phone, I bought this tailpiece. I installed it in about 15 minutes. On the seventh (tune changed), the eighth (tune changed but not significantly), and the ninth (tune changed). The melody had remained consistent. As a result, be ready to re-evaluate your situation. While the stiff tailgut settles in, tune for a few days. br>Excellent value for money and a high-quality product.
To put it bluntly, I'm a cello beginner. My professor, on the other hand, is not one of them. She has a strong grasp on the technique. She advised me to replace my tailpiece. She was pleased with it and said it was a good buy when I presented it to her on my cello.
I'm not convinced that a lighter tailpiece will always make a cello sound better. Even with a set of frequency measurements, changes in mode coupling are difficult to predict. However, any serious cellist should try this experiment, as it appears to have solved my main wolf problem. My next step is to replace the heavy nylon cord with a kevlar cord that is much lighter and thinner. It doesn't quite match my ebony tailpiece, in my opinion.
Replacement is simple and quick. Simply keep the sound post in place by not moving the cello. It improves the sound of my beginner cello to the level of my intermediate cello. This is fantastic!.
