No. 132 Cello 4/4 : Lothar Semmlinger No. 132 Cello 4/4

I am a conservatory student in the 8th year of a cello course: I bought this cello to finish my studies with a superior quality instrument. I can make a comparison with the Gewa cello IDEALE (for beginners) with which I have played until now. The Semmlinger cello No.132 has a wonderful warm sound especially in the lower register. It keeps the tuning of the strings stable over time. I only noticed that, the height of the strings on the fingerboard is a little higher than Gewa, as the bridge is 2mm higher (see also customer review of cello No.132A).

I am fully satisfied with this purchase that I find a good compromise between high quality at an affordable price.

P.S. I recommend not to disassemble the bridge as the soundpost may move: ask your luthier to do it in case is necessary.
