Man Claudiu makes these beautiful instruments for us by hand in his workshop in Romania.  Only the finest European woods, fittings, and oil varnish are used in the making of each masterpiece.

The tone of the Man Claudiu cello is very complex - rich and deep lower register with clarity and brilliance in the upper register.  It is suitable for the pre-professional player or for one who wishes never to have to upgrade, as the quality of Man Claudiu's work is equal to that of many of the most popular contemporary instrument makers.  While the tone is spectacular from the very start, the reward comes later as it begins to break in and the tone matures with the player.

Available with either boxwood or ebony fittings of the highest quality, (Hill-style with heart-shaped pegs - ebony recommended) and fitted with Bois d'Harmonie tailpiece and New Harmony Music carbonfiber endpin.

Aubert Mirecourt Deluxe bridge, ebony fingerboard, inlaid purfling, solid, carved throughout, the very finest hand selected, aged European spruce and maple of the highest quality, lightly antiqued oil varnish.  Each instrument optimally setup with Larsen A and D, with Helicore G and C
