There is only one at this price. If you want it, buy it. When it's gone, it's gone.This is another of my present stock of cellos that I really was not expecting to still be here. What is it putting people off I wonder? One of the most popular beginner cellos on the market, and my flawless online reputation, and the huge added value, all should mean that this would have gone very quickly but it hasn't. Perhaps potential buyers are worried about sending it back if something goes wrong? OK so here's the deal. If you live within 100 miles or so of Huddersfield I prefer to deliver in person anyway and that means you can check it on the spot. If you are not happy I just take it straight back. Or if you take it to the teacher and are then unhappy, tell me and Parcelforce will collect it from you free. All you need to do is keep the packaging until you are sure. Please play fair though - don't buy this unless you are genuinely expecting to keep it. I am a very small business.The outfit as it comes from most other retailers, at least those selling well below the list price:Respected cello outfit from well known wholesaler The Soundpost. Solid wood, ebony fittings. Do not confuse with the very cheap cellos often sold on ebay. List price for the outfit as it comes from the wholesaler is £580 (if you see it marked as lower than that, the only reason is that the price keeps going up and not everyone updates the RRP all the time, and after all, why should they when most of us sell at less?). The upgrades supplied by Elida Violins (what shall I call it, platinum plus plus plus?):1. Set up described as "gold" by other retailers, often done by the wholesaler for which their list price is £46.50 - this set up includes D'addario Prelude strings which are considerably better than the factory strings and would cost you £51.62 from the cheapest strings retailer I know to buy yourself. The rest of the set up involves sending the cello with the bridge and soundpost in place - in other words it arrives ready to play.
2. Better quality bridge fitted by our repairer, cost £45 (and you will be very hard pressed to get it any cheaper, just look around on the internet!)
3. Genuine Wittner Ultra tailpiece with built in adjusters, replacing the Chinese one supplied as standard (more reliable!). list price for this tailpiece is £24.48
4. Better bow: the bow supplied as standard with this outfit is a hardwood bow with round stick, list price £34. Actually supplied by Elida Violins is a Schroetter AS23C bow which is a Brazilwood bow with ebony frog and octagonal stick. This bow is a discontinued model but Thomann (who are about the cheapest there are) have this bow (in its current incarnation which is branded Stingl) at €47 plus shipping. And yes you will find the Schroetter bow on my website at £35 but that is not the full list price - this is a better bow than the one normally supplied (as I said).
5. Better rosin - as standard this outfit includes a rather cheap and nasty block of rosin but I am supplying it with genuine A&B cello rosin which has a list price of £5.13According to my calculations, at list price that's about £750 worth and yes you could well expect to pay that in a bricks and mortar specialist shop. Just check around the web.
