  • Amazing Craftsmanship and Intonation...
Size: 4/4 Style: CCO 100HC
Having played guitar for many years, I’ve always wanted to learn the cello. The CCO-1 is an excellent instrument for beginners like me. The craftsmanship is truly impressive. The neck and soundboard were perfectly straight with no warping. The bridge feet fit perfectly against the top of the instrument at the internal centering notches in the F-holes. The sound post was upright and in its proper place on arrival. It even survived -20 F outside temps when shipping with no cracks or dings on the cello body or its beautiful gloss finish. The tuning pegs hold their pitch nicely for long periods of time. However, the most impressive feature was the sound and intonation. After watching some videos and using tape to mark the note positions, I applied rosin to the bow (Jade L’Opera brand) and started to play scales and simple tunes. The base strings sound warm and full like the European cellos, while the treble strings were powerful and articulate with amazing resonance. The hard shell case is lined with thick foam and a red velvet-like material. I was pleasantly surprised at the value for the money and plan to buy smaller sized models by Cecilio for my kids when they are old enough to play. ... show more

  • Good value for a knowledgeable beginner, but requires setup
Size: 4/4 Style: CCO 100HC
First off, this is my first violincello, but I learned to play the violin 40 years ago. If you have absolutely no knowledge of orchestral string instruments, I would advise you not to buy this. Go to a local string shop and rent a student cello from there and get some experience first. You might spend $50-$75/month to rent, but in some cases you can rent to own. You'll get a cello that is already setup, and possibly higher quality, if not more dinged up, and some "history" if you're into that feeling. If you are up for an adventure, then read on! First, I bought the package that came with a soft case, hard case, a "cello stand", entry level cello, bow, one extra set of strings, and a rosin cake. Things you will need to buy on your own: 1. a chair. playing the cello requires a certain playing position, and so you can't use just any chair. You want one that tilts you forward, is the height that allows your legs to bend at a 90 degree angle at the hips and the knees, and maybe has some padding but not too much. You don't want anything that swivels either. You might have a chair like this already at home, but if not you will need a solution. Don't try to make do with a chair that is too low or high, or tilts you backwards, you'll hurt yourself and be super fatigued after practicing, and will grow to hate playing. 2. a music stand. You can get a cheap foldable stand for holding paper music 3. a proper cello stand. Yes, the package I bought came with a "cello stand". So why do I suggest you need to get cello stand? The one pictured in the product page, and that I received is actually a guitar stand. This is a problem for several reasons. First, it sits low to the ground. You have to push the end pin back in to use the stand. Do you want a stand you can set your cello in briefly during practice or performance? The guitar stand isn't going to do it. Second, it rests on two lower arms and the back of the cello rests against a foam pad at the top of the stand triangle. Because this is a guitar stand, the contact points are very close together as the body of a guitar is much smaller that that of a cello. These contact points allow for your cello to be knocked off easily. Third, there is no place to hang the bow, because guitars don't use bows. 4. peg dope. no, not weed for your pegs. this is a compound you can apply to keep the pegs from slipping, if you have that problem. Mine appear to be fine, but I also already have peg dope for my violin if the need arises. 5. end pin holder. OK, you may not need one right away (see below for a discussion of the end pin on this cello), but the strap type of holder are less than 10 bucks, and you will need one eventually, and more immediately if you're playing on a hard floor. Plus it helps you be consistent about your cello placement as you're learning (the strap type specifically). Expect to spend another $100 dollars or so, more if you need a chair. You'd need these things no matter what, so just plan to get them somehow. OK, now a review of the components of the kit: 1. the stand. See above. It's a guitar stand, give it to a friend who plays guitar and get a proper cello stand if you want/need one. 2. the soft case. This is more of a dust cover than a case. It has minimal padding, and there is no extra padding around the bridge nor for the scroll, so those sensitive components could be easily banged around if you use the soft case for transport. 3. the hard case. The hard case seems nice, it's a zipper style case covered in fabric. I has wheels, a carry strap, and a handle. It's velour lined o n the inside, but no padding. It has two sets of velcro straps for holding up to two bows. It also has a useless latch and lock combo that came with no key, and the clasp is on a fabric wing that could be easily cut off. Not really sure why there is a locking latch. It's acceptable for this level of cello, and this is the case I would use to take it places. 4. the bow. It's a typical entry level bow, and relatively heavy, but serves the purpose. 5. the strings. These are cheap strings. If you're learning, just use them till they wear out and replace with better ones. 6. the cello. It's made of real wood, it's cello shaped, and it has a finish in all the right areas. It looks decent, sounds decent, and I had no major quality issues. The finish on the back of mine has fine scratches all over it, I'm guessing from shipping. The tailpiece is aluminum with one piece fine tuners, which is nice. Mine has an issue with the A string, the tuning screw will pop off the tuning lever if it's turned down too much. The other thing about this cello is the end-pin. First, it's pegged into the body, so it cannot be easily removed out from the end of the cello. Second, it seems to be a solid stainless steel rod, so its heavier than it needs to be. Third, it's not sharpened, and because the end pin is pegged into the cello, it can't be easily sharpened. The rubber cap over it seems to be meant to be used directly. It's effective at preventing slipping on carpet, but on a hard surface probably not, once it's covered in dust. The setup. OK, this is where I said you'd need to invest time. The cello comes with the bridge down but pre-strung. Surprisingly the sound post made it all the way to me via UPS still in place. Normally the string tension through the bridge would ensure the sound post stays put. How it was shipped and didn't fall is a mystery. The bridge does at least appear to have been fit to the body, but you will have to properly place it. (A funny aside, after I bought this, I saw the ad by Cecilio for their cello. Hilariously, the bridge in that video is set in the completely wrong place, so don't use that as a guide!) After setting the bridge, you will properly tighten the strings and tune them, then go through a week or more of making major tuning adjustments as the tailpiece gut stretches out to it's final shape. By major tuning I mean using the tuning pegs, not the fine tuners. If it continues to slip out of tune after a week or two, you might need your pegs fitted or try adding peg dope. If you've never used a tuning peg before or set a bridge, or have slipping pegs, then I suggest you take it to a string shop and let them do all that for you. They'll need to keep it for a little while. You can have them put tapes on it too. That will cost you extra money, so factor that into your cost and value purchase decision. Future upgrades. If you find yourself enjoying the cello, then you can, in the future, invest in a better balanced, lighter bow, which you can use on this cello or a better one that you upgrade to after a few years. Strings will be a must anyways, so get better strings when the cheap ones have served their purpose (you're a beginner, so you're not going to be playing Bach's Cello Suite #1 anytime soon), and hear less tinny music from your cello. I don't suggest spending any money on planetary gear tuners as they will be rather permanently affixed to this cello, nor do I suggest you need a different tailpiece, unless it breaks. I hope you enjoy your cello journey! ... show more

This was supposed to be a great way for my daughter to de-stress. However, the gift we intended on giving her, a new full size cell, has not lived up to the expectation. The first cello's tailpiece was broken. We did a "return and replace". The second cello is also broken...but to return it costs as much as it was to purchase the cello. ... show more

It's pretty nice for a student cello. The biggest thing for us was the hardcase. That's a game changer for someone who transporting their cello to school and back every day. The sound is decent. My daughter is really happy.

  • Good cello
Size: 4/4 Style: CCO 100HC
This is a good cello for the money. I know it is not the highest quality, but I had limited funds for this. It was an early Christmas present for my 10 year old daughter, who is a 1st year player. I watched a couple of videos and had no problem setting up the bridge and restringing the cello with D'addario Prelude strings. I used an app on my phone to tune it, and I purchased Jade rosin for the bow. My daughter's orchestra teacher advised it was a good instrument. We had no issues with the sound peg, and I am good with my purchase. I plan on replacing her bow next year. I would have gotten a CC-500 or 700, if I had more funds, but I wanted to give her more than a cello for Christmas. She likes it, but she is still a kid. ... show more

  • Good Cello for Beginners
Size: 4/4 Style: CCO 100HC
I am happy to find an entry-level cello that is functional to learn to play on. Cellos can require a significant investment, not only in the initial purchase but also maintenance supplies and equipment. This outfit will get you started at a very reasonable price point. I did have to return my first cello due to a cracked neck. The seller quickly attended to my concerns and provided a relacment within 10 days. The replacement was intact and without flaws or damage. I have upgraded the strings, bridge, and bow, as suggested by other buyers, and the resulting improvement in playability and sound is significant. I hope to play this cello for a year or so until I can achieve a level of profficiency that will support the purchase and financial investment of a hand made instrument. For this time being, this is a highly serviceable instrument and one I can enjoy learning with. ... show more
