Key Features
Hold a piece of history. By continuing the legacy of the great Amati brothers. Crafted with meticulous detail, the Amati Brothers Cremonese cello copy 1616 has been made to include every nuance that the master brothers initially intended.
The attention to detail on this cello is breathtaking. Professionally varnished by hand with rosewood pegs with Parisian eyes, the Amati brothers cello is a truly beautiful instrument. It's this sort of detail that can't be found with other cellos.
Boasting a two-piece back made from figured maple, the Amati cello produces a large yet focussed sound. This set-up also includes an Archer lightweight cello case by Gear4music and a set of Pirastro Oliv strings.
Please note: The Amati Brothers cello will be shipped with the sound post down and not set up to avoid any damage in transit.

Ebony is a popular wood, known best for the clear, crisp attacks it is capable of producing. This wood is generally much brighter than maple and has a similar density too. Ebony however has oilier pores than maple and extra brittle grains. As a result of the tight grains, this fingerboard doesn't require any finish. This quality gives the fingerboard a natural smooth, quick playing ability favoured by many professionals. Although there are many types of wood used to create fingerboards, ebony is the darkest of them all. The wood works effectively throughout the instrument's range and is reliable for years.
This 4/4 size Amati Cello is the ideal fit for most players - adults and older children can enjoy the comfortable fit of this instrument. Worry no more about adjusting the instrument to your size and concentrate solely on your musical preparation.
The two Amati brothers are known to be some of Cremona's finest makers. Their work is inspired by their father Andrea, who was the founder of the Cremona school. Violins made by the brothers are often small whereas their tenor and brass instruments are much more robust in regards to both size and tone. This cello is much like their others, and features a reduced size and stunning overall design.
