    Customers are mixed about the sound quality of the cello. Some mention that the strings are very nice sounding, and the timbre was neither too bright nor extremely dark. However, others say that the sound can be a bit metallic, and that the post was not fixed. 30 minutes into playing, the sound was no longer transmitting smoothly to the amp, and there was still a nasal tone to the cell.

    Customers are dissatisfied with the stability of the cello. They mention that the tuning pegs keep slipping and the bridge keeps sliding out. They also say that the peg compound helps to keep the peggs tight.

    "...I will probably still do so, because they do slip a little, but I would say it’s very slight...." Read more

    I love this for two reasons
    The biggest thing about me as the consumer I look for quality and companies that not only make quality products and stand by their products as in the way of customer satisfaction I originally ordered the cello after shopping around awhile it showed up and the sound post was rolling around inside its body saddened I contacted seller and they not only sent me a new one with no hassle. But I asked what to do with first one that was broken they said keep it they were more concerned about my happiness with their product ans reached out to me and asked me if I had any other needs or concerns feel free to contact them I know what they did isn't acommon practice but it made me feel good that I wasn't taken for an invoice number but treated as if I matter like a customer should be thank you guys you rock

    4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent for Beginners but need some adjusting!
    Reviewed in the United States on January 17, 2021
    Item arrived in excellent condition with the exception of a broken "D string". I contacted Amazon and they remedied the problem quickly however the replacement strings are on backorder and I have to wait. But I was supper impressed with the quick resolution. I bought a replacement string and was able to get started. However I reduced the review from 5 star to 4 star for the following issues. First as mention the cheap and broken string, second - the pegs seem to be unable to hold a tune from Ceilio products, that includes my CNV-300 Violin I purchased as well. This is easily resolved with Peg drops that's commonly used by a Luthier. Some people complained about a small piece of wood inside the Cello and couldn't get it out. Your not supposed to get it out its supposed to be in there however not loosely moving around. This is the sound post. If its detached you have 2 options: Send the Cello back and get a replacement or Go to your local Luthier and have the replace the post and tune your instrument. I recommend sending it back as most Luthiers do not like repairing or fine tuning such a cheap Cello, although some will. But, if the item is new, why would you pay to have it fixed? Just return and get a replacement. The Cello is beautiful and well made in my opinion, I would've liked a less vibrant color and less lacquer but still it's a beautiful piece. After tuning and getting started I must say I enjoy having this as my first Cello to own. I played many instruments when I was younger so learning a new one is not a issue. I will say hand exercise is a MUST to truly appreciate this instrument as a beginner. I have already learn my scales after a couple days. I am upgrading my strings to Preludes. They are recommended and make a tremendous difference in sound quality. I have them on my violin and can tell you it is a MUST! The rosin included is ok, I have a dark version but it is still inferior to buying a better quality like Kaplan ($16) or Bespoke Range ($99) if you have a more expensive Cello. The one included will do the job just make sure you scratch the surface to get a good coating on the bow. The bow of this Cello is o...k... I say that with little enthusiasm. Its not balanced and a little too heavy, especially for a beginner. The horse hair breaks very easily. I recommend buying a new bow from Shar. They have a really good carbon fiber bow decently made a well balance for around $60. Plus you will get a MUCH better sound. SOOO my overall review of this Cello is 4 out of 5 Stars. Excellent quality for the money! Do your research, take your time to learn the craft! and ENJOY your new hobby! Cheers!

    Sound post is not installed but that's how they transport cellos and you can install it for $20.
