QR Code Link to This Post

This cello has just been appraised by luthier, Linda West Cellos, in Santa Barbara. You can verify this if you wish. They stated that with about $1K towards a new high quality setup/strings - this cello would sound very nice and be worth around $6K. So, I am listing this about $1000 to $1500 below its' value ($4k to $4.5K)

It is solid, carved (not laminate), no seam cracks. minor repairs around the body that have been done well. The sound post is a good quality but should be re sized and moved left a little. She told me to mention that there has been a sound post patch repair which was done well.

Maker:

A Schroetter in germany is the maker "A. Schroetter (or Andrew/Anton Schroetter) cellos are reputable German stringed instruments, often produced in Mittenwald, known for being durable, well-crafted, and excellent for students, renters, or intermediate players. "

It has been rarely used or moved.

Comes with a soft case, bow, stand.
