FAQ
Q: Where do I go buy a Cello?
A: Find a good and reliable music store
that specializes in stringed instruments(preferably handmade).
Q: Can I just go to the store on my own and
pick one out?
A: It is recommended to go to the store and
look for the best Cello for you with a professional, like a private tutor.
Q: I heard there are different sizes of
Cellos. How do I know which one is what I need?
A: Different heights require different Cellos.
When you extend the end pin of the cello to the max, the C-peg at the top
should touch your left ear. This is a trick in choosing a perfect sized cello
for you.
Q: What other things do I have to buy,
other than the Cello?
A: There are several things you can buy,
but the most important tools are bow and rosin. Sometimes they both come
together with the Cello, but rosin usually does not. A bow is definitely needed
to play the cello because it is what makes the cello make sound as it slides
across the strings. Rosin is used to make the bow have more contact with the
string to make a beautiful melody.
Q: Where do I keep the Cello?
A: There are different designs of cases.
They are also made with different materials. Most Cello cases are simply made
out of fabric, but hard cases are what last longer. Hard cases have wheels too.
These hard cases are more expensive, but are recommended because of their
durability.
Q: Do I need to buy extra strings?
A: Buying extra strings is common when
buying a Cello the first time. It is sure that if you keep playing this
instrument for a long time, one of the strings will break at least once. So,
buy at least one extra for every string.
