Cello based on Andrea Guarneri
This cello has a rich warm tone which, like the original I used as a model, is probably due to the back being made of poplar, as are the ribs. It has great presence throughout, from a lovely resonant C string, to the A string which has projection, width and warmth. Being the size of many old English cellos, [and some classical Italian ones too!] with a slightly short string length, it is easy to play, especially for someone with small hands. But be in no doubt, this sounds like a proper cello!
