Made in the Czech Republic, I'm surprised to say this isn't the first of these fretted Electric Cellos we've seen come through the shop. Through the thoughtful mind under the Ned Steinberger name, we welcome this impressive electric instrument. Designed with precision and obvious forward thinking, these have become fairly "popular" amongst the bowed electric enthusiasts. "Sunburst finish" small body makes it a no brainer for travel. A radius'd and fretted fingerboard make it a unique instrument ready for experimentation. Controls on its side for Volume, Tone and a switch for Pizzicato or Arco playing. Setup with a low action, this is an easy to play and interesting instrument for the adventurous. No stand or bow in this package, includes the original gig bag.
