It is necessary to set the bridge (not too hard) and tune the guitar. After the strings stretch, tuning will be constant for a week. Be prepared to do some retuning during that time.

It's a beautiful shade of blue and I love the wooden fittings. This is one of the most beautiful instruments I've seen. A great deal of craftsmanship, from the construction to the carvings, is evident from start to finish (not just in price, but as a proper playing cello, as well). I guess I might have to adjust the sound settings after ordering this as I was just about to do so It would have made more sense to post in a more appropriate part of the site, but I didn't have to. The C and G fine-tuners did have to come off, since they made the instrument sound full and vibrant without them. As far as I am concerned, the strings that came with the instrument were fine. As a matter of fact, I prefer them over the D'Aaddario strings I purchased before. D'Addario strings were too stiff, whereas these Cecilio strings are just the right thickness and are more responsive to the bow, making playing the instrument much easier. This is a splendid cello and its overall appearance is just stunning. They even rank higher than antiques in my opinion Glossy, expensive cellos in the style of the past. In terms of price, It is difficult to believe that 300 people are involved A few seconds away from being a real miracle. said, although this instrument is made in China, that does not mean that it is of substandard quality. While at different music stores, I have checked displayed cellos with prices well over $1000, and I can tell you that the sound of my Cecilio CCO-125 is very different from the sound of any cello I have heard. A cello that costs just $300 is far superior to those costing much more. The last thing I want you to know is to get it if you are looking for a beautiful, high-quality product The instrument is of good quality.
A video of me playing the instrument is attached along with some photos of the instrument. Please keep in mind that I am a violinist who recently took up the cello, so when watching the video, try not to be distracted by that.
I have some notes to make. replaced the tuning pegs with ebony ones, then restrung the instrument with peg drops, and the tuning system worked fine for me. Apparently not everyone had great luck with the tuning system, but with a little TLC it can work just fine. I noted what other people had encountered with the fine-tuners during tuning. It is possible for the adjustment screw to pop off one side of the lever, and the string needs to be loosened considerably before it can be reset. A string load that is really unbalanced will result in this abnormal behavior- After everything is set up, the sound is ideal. Dimensionally, everything was fine and required no setup, so I added a Snark tuner, a mute, a carbon-fiber stop, a battery and cables. The bow now sounds really good because it's made of fibers and better rosin. What kind of work is involved?
Is it hard? It goes without saying- While it is time-consuming, it can be a great way to get to know the instrument and save hundreds - if not thousands -.
As a result of the crack near one of the holes of the first cello, I was willing to forgive it since it was a smaller one. My original order has been returned and a replacement ordered. It is evident that these instruments are not being examined before shipping because the second cello I received had a HUGE crack I noticed right away. Cracks ran all the way through both pieces of wood, not just varnish scraped off, and both times the cello case and shipping box were unharmed. This company is clearly selling used instruments and I would not recommend purchasing from them. Be sure to go over your instrument with a fine tooth comb before deciding whether to keep it if you decide to purchase. The original review left before receiving the second cello is as follows This cello is great! I'm very satisfied with it I am delighted to announce that my son has just begun an orchestra program at His teacher has asked a few other students to purchase better instruments because the ones they brought in originally were not high-quality. I do not know anything about cellos. My son brought his to school, and her teacher told me it was a good cello for a beginner, so I think it is fine! As he is going to be carrying the phone back and forth a lot, the hard case was a key selling point for me. I was surprised that a hard case on Amazon cost 300 dollars when I searched for hard cases elsewhere. They start at 200 dollars without an instrument, so I reckon I got an amazing deal. Although the case feels very sturdy, I think it would have to take a fairly serious beating before any harm would be done It is also important to point out that I saw a few reviewers complain that their bridge was not set up, while mine came with the bridge already installed and padded during transportation. As a whole, I am extremely happy with this package! Is there a reason only four stars are given? I had to return it due to an error. This instrument ships with a crack near the right F hole (see above picture), so the crack must have occurred before it was sent out. Since the instrument came in its hard case, and the shipping container was not damaged, the crack must have occurred before the instrument was After receiving the package I was forced to scrutinize it because it had a crack, but I would have missed it if I hadn't been looking at it closely. There are mistakes to be made so I'm not too upset that the crack was overlooked. It was a pleasant surprise when UPS came to my door to pick up the box for me. I didn't expect any hassle over returning something so expensive. You can return anything you want with no hassle at all.
Even though I purchased it, I was very pleased with it when I received it. I was stunned by the beauty of the swans. All the components were in place, all the issues were resolved, and I just needed to set it up. Despite how beautiful it looks and how great it sounds, the cello is quite heavy and heavy. The surface is scratch-free and crack-free, rather than a piece of cracke. Overall, I am super happy and think you should buy it since I am satisfied with it. My only tiny tiny suggestion is to make sure you get a new bow because the one it comes with is okay but not the best. But I do recommend you get.
