This superb cello doesn't have to take a back seat to any other in the orchestra --with its highly-figured maple back and sides and its gleaming, warm brown varnish. The top and back are meticulously hand-carved and graduated for a tone of both subtle quality and great carrying power. Hill-style stained boxwood trimmings are an elegant touch, and the overall workmanship is the epitome of the luthier's art. The most gifted student will be proud to own this beautiful outfit--and the Cremona SC-320B is sure to inspire the student to greater musical heights! Traditional Look Distinctive Design Wood Selection Our Premier Cello Outfits were designed with a specific level of player in mind. At the early stages, price becomes the most important variable in the decision process; while more experienced players would rather pay a little more to get an even better instrument. Either way, quality and value remain constant. As a result, we made it a point to combine the best quality tone woods possible at each price point without sacrificing tone or playability. Construction Cremona craftsmen strictly adhere to traditional design and construction specifications by hand-carving and graduating each instrument one at a time. Even the instruments at the more affordable levels will perform flawlessly, consistently for the player regardless of skill level. Cremona Premier Cello Outfits are all finished using the same techniques and attention to detail used on the most expensive instruments. The delicately applied warm translucent brown finish, some with a more antiqued look, is carefully applied to give these instruments a true high-end appeal—even our most affordable outfits! Fingerboard and Fittings Traditionally shaped dyed hardwood, and exotic wood fittings and fingerboards, are used to create outfits that accommodate skill-level but price point too. Regardless of which instrument the student will be playing, each instrument will be the perfect balance of quality and value. Outfit Most outfits are combined with the industry’s first, lightweight design, injection-molded foam Cello case. The Travelite TL-20, weighing in at a mere 4 lbs. (case only) makes transporting and protecting Cremona Premier Cello outfits the only way! Novice level instruments are combined with a top-quality Superior Trailpak I gig bag. Attention to Detail Cremona Premier Artist Series - The value standard for the educational community! The Cremona Violin Family of instruments offers the widest selection of high-quality violin outfits to meet the needs of students, teachers, and parents, no matter where they are in the educational process.
