The Cechino Cellini label is our bench mark for the serious young student. Made from selected and figured tone woods, the cello is fitted up to a high standard in our own workshops, specifications include Jargar strings, Despiau bridge, Wittner tail-piece, ebony pegs and fingerboard, and of course nothing has been left to chance. The precise camber of the fingerboard has been planed and smoothed to template, the sound-post placed so as to give a warm yet bright tone, and the bridge set just right - we usually leave them a little high so that we can finish the precise height and curve to you individual taste when you have selected your new instrument. Larsen strings are available at extra cost.

4/4 Cechino Cellini Cello £975 including VAT.

This cello has a sweet tone and a lightly figgured back in two pieces of well quartered sycamore that is very attractive. It benefits from the usual high standard of Timothy Batchelar set up including Jargar strings, Despiau bridge, Wittner tail-piece, ebony pegs and fingerboard, and has of course been "voiced" by Timothy Batchelar personally.
