Fine old fullsize German Neuner & Hornsteiner cello unlabelled.  This cello is in very good playing condition.  It is fully blocked and lined.  It has a beautifully flamed two piece back and ribs.  The varnish is red/brown in colour.  The purfling is very neatly inlaid, the instrument having excellent edgework.  There are two finely repaired cracks too the table and a small amount of woodworm at the bottom of the table, long since dead.  Apart from this the beautifull old cello is in good condition and produces a deep mellow tone with plenty of volume.  L.O.B 74.9cms or 29 1/2 inches.  Complete with old case.
