{"product_id":"makers-ii-cello-c-grade-4-4-dark","title":"Makers II Cello - C Grade - 4\/4 Dark, Handcrafted with Maple Back \u0026 Spruce Top, Bare Bones Format, Designed for Luthiers","description":"The ‘Makers’ instrument range is completely hand-crafted in a small workshop in the northern China region.  This husband-wife team produce a small, select reserve of instruments per year focusing of tonal excellence rather than quantity.\n‘Makers’ instruments feature carefully selected well-flamed 2-piece maple backs with matching neck-blocks and well-seasoned, close and straight grained spruce tops for use in their small workshop specialising in plate graduating and tonal excellence.  Their hand-applied oil varnish and subtle antiquing is outstanding. With a limited number of instruments produced yearly, the fine workmanship is very apparent both tonally \u0026amp; in appearance with each proudly-made instrument.\nThis range is designed for Australian makers, luthiers and specialists in mind as each instrument is supplied as ‘bare bones’ to be set-up and presented to our market uniquely reflecting the character and preferences of each Australian luthier. This typically includes the use of the best componentry: pairing of European strings, high-grade French bridges, German Wittner Ultralight Tailpiece etc.\nInstruments are supplied in a ‘bare-bones’ format with just ebony pegs and ebony fingerboard and are available in 3 grades that relate directly to tone-wood selections.","brand":"Makers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51901617406237,"sku":"08014PT","price":1895.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0998\/2092\/9309\/files\/08014PT.webp?v=1782122376","url":"https:\/\/scarlettmusic.com.au\/products\/makers-ii-cello-c-grade-4-4-dark","provider":"Scarlett Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
