Mint Open Box Maple Leaf Chaconne ¾ Size Cello model MLS500C
This instrument has been tried a few times in the store, so we cannot sell it as new.
Designed with a progressing student in mind, the Craftsman Collection of cellos ensure that they are capable of easily responding to the more advanced play techniques that will be required from them.
Throughout the entire delicate hand-crafted process, design decisions were carefully balanced to ensure that attention was focused in places that have the greatest impact on playability and tonal quality.
These are visibly seen in the aesthetic characteristics of the flamed maple and various varnish styles.All of the Craftsman Collection cellos feature a high-quality, blended spirit and oil-based varnish. Beginning with the smooth shaded warm brown tones of the Chaconne, and progressing to the tastefully textured antiquing of the Medici, each level builds off of the previous process and adds more personality and simulated antique authenticity.
Likewise,the well-seasoned curly maple begins with a moderately-figured example at the Chaconne level and increases in definition through the entire collection.While the varnish and the material selections are something that can be seen on the outside,these are mere extensions of the real differences that can only be heard. With each step in the collection, calculated additions to the graduation patterns enhance the tone and response of the top and back.
