THE FRAME STRAP SYSTEM IS A MOVING EXPERIENCE guaranteed to make you smile! The freedom of full mobility, only a dream for the cellist or upright bassist, is now a reality. The Frame Strap System fits over the shoulder like a guitar strap, but holds the instrument out from the body in the ideal position for bow and pizzicato technique.
Lightweight frame design has triangulated body contact points to provide a high degree of stability and comfort. Convenient height and angle adjustments allow players to accommodate personal styles of play. In addition to the vertical position, the neck can be angled horizontally like a guitar for picking and strumming.
A single wing nut secures the instrument in place for fast set-up and breakdown. The strap system fits both cello and double bass. Virtually all traditional playing techniques are possible, including thumb position. The instrument neck is tilted back and close to the shoulder, but the body angles out, away from the body for excellent bow access across the full arc of play. This angle also helps traditional cello and bass pizzicato technique to sound and feel natural.
NS Design CR Endpin Stand for Cello Features:
• Traditional knee and chest contact points for seated play
• Adjustable height, knee rest position, and instrument angle
• Foldable knee rest to easily fit in the gig bag
The Cobra, Mark Wood 4 String Electric Cello is equipped with a range of features that make it ideal for both novice and experienced cellists.
• A neck designed to be comfortable and ergonomic, making it easy to play with.
• A fretless fretboard for a variety of tonal possibilities.
• Pickups and electronics allow cellists to shape and create a unique sound.
• Accessories, such as a strap and a hardshell case. These accessories make it easy to transport the instrument and protect it from the elements.
17/08/21 Update: We have ONE of these cellos available. It has a grey metal-flake finish and is fretted.
NS Design NXTa 4 String Cello. THE NXTa ACTIVE SERIES CELLO, available with 4 or 5 strings, fretless or fretted, opens up new vistas for the serious cellist. FEATURES The tone quality and dynamic range of the NXTa cello owe much to the self-powered NS Polar™ Pickup System.
A convenient switch on the side of the NXTa allows the player to select sensitivity for either mode.
• Dual Mode Output – For improved convenience, versatility and performance capability
• Active Mode – for plugging the instrument straight into any low or high-impedance device; no direct box is necessary.
• Passive Mode – for plugging the instrument using a direct box or an amplifier with high-impedance input. (This mode provides performance capabilities identical to the original NXT.)
The SILENT Cello™ features an acoustic resonating chamber for enhanced feel and sound, making it perfect for performances, recording, and silent practice. A Yamaha chip adds natural reverb in three settings: Large Hall, Medium Hall, and Room. Its hollow body and redesigned pickup produce an acoustic-like tone, while a narrow aperture enhances warmth.
• Rich Tone
• Elegant Design
• Versatile Connectivity
• Easy Portability
Free shipping for cellos does not apply to orders from Tasmania, Western Australia, or some other places, and there may be an additional charge.
