Cecilio CCO-300 Handmade All Solid Wood Size 4/4 Cello Outfit

One Response to “Cecilio CCO-300 Handmade All Solid Wood Size 4/4 Cello Outfit”

I bought this cello about 18 months ago. I’ve been a musician for over 20 years, but this is my first cello. Since I didn’t know if the instrument would be right for me I decided to go inexpensive. The fact that it came with a second set of strings, “hard” foam case, soft case, stand, rosin and a bow, I thought this was quite a steal.

You get what you pay for, it’s true. This is no orchestra instrument by any means. But for a beginner it is a heck of a deal. If mine broke I’d either buy this one again or one of the step up models (CCO-400 or 500 series) as I probably wouldn’t allow myself to spend over 1k on any other student model, at least until I’m only using it for studying and doing some home recording.
