7/8 size, Michael Gerlach cello Copy of Giovanni Bapt. Gabrielli
SOLD!

Wonderful, resonant dark voice with good sustain and complexity. No fight in this one plays like butter with no problematic wolf tones that I can find. This cello has a nice balance and consistent tonal color that carries across the strings seamlessly. The bass is very robust and the upper register is open and sweet. very responsive and has a good degree of depth and complexity to explore. It's entire range is already very resonate and open and this will only improve with time so it is off to a great start.

Superb sounding 7/8 size cello. If you need a 7/8 size, but are afraid of having to compromise projection and sound quality to step down to a smaller cello, no worries, I think this cello will be a happy surprise.

The following is the set it up:

New Harmony 10mm carbon fiber endpin assembly (lightens the cello and opens the sound)
Evah Pirazzi
French style Rosewood tailpiece
Heart style rosewood PegHeds geared pegs

Hi Linda,

Good think I got up early. It arrived - perfectly - at 7:30 am. I've been playing for nearly 1 hour and 40 minutes,

This 7/8 Gerlach IS meatier, but it's also subtle and strong, and resonant, and I
actually have to be careful as it responds incredibly well with little
right hand/arm work. It's really amazing for an instrument in its
price-range. The evah p. strings are great and those tuners - OH - you
are so right - are absolutely incredible. And the rosewood tail piece
is stunning.

What a joy this cello will be in my life.

Cheers,

Barry
