This beautifully crafted cello offers awarm and mellow tone that creates an inviting, relaxed playing experience. Perfect for students progressing through intermediate to advanced levels, this instrument delivers responsive and malleable playability that grows with developing musicians.
The cello features full-bodied projection with balanced control, making it equally suited for chamber music, orchestral work, and teaching environments. Its supple resistance and consistent reliability provide the perfect foundation for technical development while maintaining musical expression. The instrument responds beautifully to both speed and pressure variations, offering versatile performance across all musical contexts.
Exceptional even position handling ensures smooth transitions across the fingerboard, while the balanced string response supports both lyrical passages and energetic performances. This cello's blend capability makes it an excellent choice for ensemble work, yet it maintains enough presence for solo applications.

Buying a Cello Online from Linda West Cellos
All of our cellos (except for those on consignment or mezzo-forte instruments) come with a 14-day trial period. Once you receive your new cello, play it for 2 weeks, and if it's not "the one", contact us to discuss a return or replacement. Shipping costs back to us are the buyer's responsibility. Please see our FAQs for complete details.
Most cellos will come with a case and a bow. If you are shopping from a distance, Linda will select the most compatible bow for your cello by playing the instrument and trying out several bows. As for cases, most cellos will come with a standard hard case, which really depends on the availability. We often use Eastman CACL28 or CACL18 cases as our standard case. For more expensive instruments that are noted as coming with a lightweight hardcase, this also depends on what we have in stock, and what your chosen instrument will fit into. We usually are selecting from Gewa Air, Otto Musica, Eastman or Century Strings cases in the $1,000 - $1,400 price range. We usually give you a couple options of case and color.
We know that purchasing a cello online takes an incredible amount of trust, knowledge, and information. Therefore, we go the extra mile to make sure that you have as much information about your future cello soulmate as we can possibly provide. We would love to talk to you before you put that cello in your cart and purchase it so we can help you make sure it's going to be the right one for you. Unlike big, 'volume' shops, we are intimately familiar with each cello we have listed, and are experts at cello/player match-making. We are very passionate about making sure you receive the cello that is going to make your playing blossom, and put a smile on your face every time you play.
