Fishman C-100 Classic Series Cello Pickup Review

I needed a quick fix for live performance with my cello and this pickup was very affordable.Well, you get what you pay for.It works, but just barely.I had to run my cello through an EQ pedal to boost the signal, which got me there, but the recreation of the sound was a little off.The bass generally didn't resonate very well and I tended to have an issue with hum (a ground loop @ 60Hz that had to be eq'd out).I've since bought a Shadow SH 955 Nanoflex Pickup and haven't looked back.The Fishman gets the job done, but expect to have to boost your signal A LOT to use it live.I'm told the preamp Fishman sells as an accessory will solve all the problems I had, but for the cost of both of them you can get a Shadow pickup or another one of the competitors.

Wicked Cello a New Musical BK/CD (Hal-Leonard Instrumental Play-Along) [Paperback] Review

I bought this for my 14yo daughter.Overall, it's a good purchase. The music is instrumental, with music for the cello to play the melody along with the CD.The cd also has a bell-sounding instrument playing the melody, which I'm not a huge fan of.I think she'd rather be playing along with the actual soundtrack (we have it - I haven't checked to see if the key signatures match), and perhaps even playing a more traditional cello harmony rather than the melody.But I still think it's a fun product for a beginning cellist who loves "Wicked!"

Cremona SC-200 Premier Student Cello, Full-Size Review

I really like this cello. I have wanted one for many years since I played the school loaned cello in high school. I was amazed at how much my skill has improved over the past 30 years from having NOT played! I psychologically understand it more, see the mathematical ratios of the strings and intervals, and the whole thing makes much more logical sense to me now. The case is of superior quality and the real horse hair bow is full, well-balanced, and produces a nice tone. The instrument also included fine tuning keys which help to get the strings exactly in tune. If I cared more, I'd probably replace at least the A string because it is initially strident. The craftsmanship of the instrument itself is flawless as far as I can tell, and the color of the wood is rich and warm. I am not disappointed in the least with this very well-priced cello.
