Just in time for the holidays

I heard this cello yesterday for the first time.  I started it in the middle of the summer, and I will finish it later this spring.  

It's not easy to be patient while in the final stages of getting a cello put together so that it can make it's voice known.  And what a pleasing voice it is!  The C string is very rich, dark and robust while on the other end of the scale, the A string is direct and sonorous.  A lot can change between now and when the instrument is varnished, appropriately set up and played in, but the initial results are quite promising.  I think I will take it to class tomorrow and see how the other players react.
