The perfect start

The violoncello is the stringed instrument that traditionally covers the tenor range in the orchestra, and it also makes waves with its smooth sound in Pop and Rock bands as well as in Jazz and Tango ensembles. Of course, it can also be enjoyed in powerful solo performances. This instrument has inspired musicians of all musical backgrounds since it was first developed in northern Italy some 500 years ago. The Roth & Junius Europe 1/4 Student Cello Set offers young music students the ideal introduction to the world of this fascinating instrument. In addition to the traditionally built instrument itself, a gig bag for safe transport and a bow are also included in the scope delivery. To ensure that you can start making music right away, the violoncello has already been set up and prepared for playing at Thomann's stringed instrument workshop in Germany.

Traditionally crafted

The Roth & Junius Europe 1/4 Student Cello is made in Europe and embodies the traditional art of instrument making, which is reflected in the selection of the materials used: The solid back is made of maple, as are the sides, while the cello's solid top, which is crucial for the sound, is made of spruce. The fingerboard is neatly set on the maple neck and is made of ebony, as are the tuning pegs and the tailpiece, the latter of which is also equipped with four fine-tuners to allow the instrument to be tuned with pinpoint accuracy. The Roth & Junius Europe 1/4 Student Cello is strung with Pirastro Chromcor strings.

Great sound, right from the beginning

The Roth & Junius Europe 1/4 Student Cello is an instrument that will please young students with its rich, pleasant cello sound. Incidentally, it is a persistent misconception that beginners and students can initially get by with an instrument that sounds less than good. In truth, the opposite is true, especially with a stringed instrument such as the cello: Young musicians in particular benefit from a melodious instrument such as the Roth & Junius Europe 1/4 Student Cello, because it delivers a clean, appealing sound and thus lays the foundation for a joyful musical experience in the years to come. By way of explanation: A 1/4-size cello is not, as the name suggests, a quarter of the size of a 4/4-size cello. With its body length of around 59cm, it is in fact nearly 80 percent of the size of a "full-size" cello. Music teachers recommend this size for children aged five and above and with an arm length of about 45 to 50cm.

Much better than any of the Stentors we tried. I bought this for my 8 year old daughter. We had her teacher try it carefully before deciding to keep it and the result was very pleasing. We where able to put it in good playing condition without going to a luthier. The only downside is the bow, this we will have to buy a better one, the one that comes with the kit was not good at all. The cello sounded like a proper instrument with a beatyfull big and pleasant sound. Looks also quite good and with nice finishing details.

Nachdem ich den Steg und die Saiten montier hatte und das Cello gestimmt war, legte ich los. Oh je !!! Die Saiten waren wohl nicht zum Cello passend. Ich tauschte die 4 Saiten gegen Larsen und Jargar aus. Wow, was ein Unterschied.

Thomann täte gut daran, für ca.130 € das Cello aufzurüsten. Die Kunden wären von Anfang an begeistert.
