  Excellent for the price

  Let me start off by saying that I have absolutely no experience playing cello, so I don't have a lot of knowledge of the instrument to compare it to.PROS:That being said, I think this is an amazing cello for the price. Considering that most "beginner" cellos in a music store start out around $1,000, finding a cello that sounds good at all for $200 is great. It did make a weird squeaky sound when I played the G string while holding down on the fret, but I started making sure I kept the rosin residue wiped off the string, switched to rather than the rosin that came with it, and started using the bow like I was taught in ... 5/5 Briana Clark "Brelywi" (Hampton Roads, VA) - See all my reviews, January 13, 2012

  Great-Amazing

  This cello I ordered Sunday evening along with a book and it arrived today (Wednesday). I got it out and played, I very enjoyed it and it is well worth your money. I have enjoyed playing and can't wait to play even more on it. I recommend that if you don't want to spend upwards of like 3,000 - 10,000 and don't know where to start, This is a excellent thing to start out on. Also in the future you could always upgrade to something professional. 5/5 Andrew Kaltt - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

  Quality

  Overall, I am pleased with my new cello, because it came with strings, end pin protector, cello rosin, cello cover, and French bow. I was surprised I did not find any packaged extra strings. I was also surprised to see that some hair came out from the bow very easily, which almost led me to believe that this bow needed re-hairing. It seems that this instrument can produce a good resonating forward sound, which at times have to control by backing the note dynamics off. I was not able to find a logo indicating where this cello was originally made at. The bridge was slightly too high. Because my original plan was to use the instrument in my church only and not professionally, this full-size instrument works very well with me. Thank you! 4/5 Daniel Tsukamoto (Clinton Township, MI) - See all my reviews, March 4, 2009

  Beautiful Cello--bad strings

  What a gorgeous cello! Nice "practice" cello---but it immediately needed new strings, and the pegs won't hold. We're still working on it and after new strings plus some peg dope (thank you Sharmusic.com), the pegs still won't hold the tuned strings. Once we get that settled, tho, it ought to play very nicely. 2/5 Charmaine Mankey (Sunny Southern California) - See all my reviews, June 5, 2010

  A Good Cello for the Price

  Customer Video Review Length:: 1:38 MinsIn this clip I talk about the cello and play a clip of a song on it; a bit of the first minuet in Suite for Solo Cello No. 1 in G Major. This cello also comes with a sturdy and well-built hard case that could work for more high-end cellos as well. The bow is ok for beginners, but as you advance in skill, a higher-quality bow will greatly enrich the sound of any cello. 5/5 Andy (New Hampshire) - See all my reviews This review is from: Cremona SC-175 Premier Student Cello, Full-Size (Electronics), February 25, 2011

  Violoncello Le Cremona -- The next best thing to a Stradivarius

  I first rented a Knilling Segundo cello. That was cool, but would have taken years to pay off, and only had a Kaces III bag with the end pin protruding out the bottom.I returned this realizing how ridiculous this was.After that, I bought a used Engelhardt 3/4 size cello and a full size case off craigslist.com. The case was nice, but the cello was a pure lemon. It sounded good, but kept sliding down the end pin.I took the Engelhardt outfit to Sam Ash today, and put a down payment on one of these Cremona full-size beauties. The other two cellos were used instruments. When I first saw and played this instrument, it just blew me away. Another shock to me was seeing the case that this instrument comes with. It's a Travelite TL-20 that sells for $175 alone.If you want the best cello that money can buy with the brand name which shares its name with the string capital of the world, this is the instrument for you. 5/5 Edward Balen (Bradenton, Florida) - See all my reviews This review is from: Cremona SC-175 Premier Student Cello, Full-Size (Electronics) I first rented a Knilling Segundo cello.

  Can't beat it for the price

  I bought this cello about 18 months ago. I've been a musician for over 20 years, but this is my first cello. Since I didn't know if the instrument would be right for me I decided to go inexpensive. The fact that it came with a second set of strings, "hard" foam case, soft case, stand, rosin and a bow, I thought this was quite a steal.You get what you pay for, it's true. This is no orchestra instrument by any means. But for a beginner it is a heck of a deal. If mine broke I'd either buy this one again or one of the step up models (CCO-400 or 500 series) as I probably wouldn't allow myself to spend over 1k on any other student model, at least until I'm only using it for studying and doing some home recording. 4/5 RBelomo (Massachusetts) - See all my reviews This review is from: Cecilio 4/4CCO-300 Rosewood Fitted Solid Wood Cello with Hard and Soft Case, Bow, Rosin, Bridge, Strings and Stand (Full Size) I bought this cello about 18 months ago.

  Beautiful finish but needs better quality control on important parts

  Overall we are happy with this cello but, it is not without a few problems that had to be corrected right out of the box - before it could be played.Got this for Christmas 2010 for our daughter who is in her third year of orchestra. It arrived quickly and without damage; all the required parts were included (hard & soft cases, extra strings, rosen, stand, etc). Once opened we found that the bridge was not the correct one for this particular cello model; it was too short and allowed the strings to rest on areas that they shouldn't. It did not lift the strings high enough that they could be plucked. (I am not a cello expert so please forgive the lack of technical terms.) She took it to her teacher and he recommended a local lady that he knows to make repairs/adjustments. We took it to this great little old lady; she told us the Cecilio brand is relatively new and sometimes their quality control isn't what it should be. But, she said overall they are good for... 4/5 L. M. Hillis (San Angelo, TX) - See all my reviews, February 2, 2011

  So far, So good

  After years of appreciating cello music, I decided to give the instrument a shot myself. The unit arrived unscathed in a large cardboard box. The bridge setup wasn't too difficult, however, tuning took some time -- still not sure if it's proper yet. From an amateur's perspective, this seems to be a fine instrument. I look forward to advancing in skill. 4/5 Chris - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

  Brazil wood bow

  Great product for a fantastic price! I have played cello for 15 years. My last brazil wood bow broke in a dissapoining moving accident and I have since had to use my backup fiber glass bow. I found this one on and hesitated to purchase, normally preferring to try a product before buying. But the price was too good to beat, worth the risk. I am thouroughly pleased with this gamble!! The seller packed the item very well, allowing this very fragile item to arrive in pristine condition. Thank u!! 5/5 Indianasarah - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
