Get the best possible start
The Harlequin cello features everything you need to start learning the cello. Unlike other cellos at this price, the Harlequin cello is carved from solid wood compared to composite woods or laminates. The top of the Harlequin cello is spruce, while the back and sides of the cello are maple. This traditional combination of wood produces a focused sound with plenty of tonal warmth.
For an added touch of luxury, the Harlequin cello uses pegs crafted from high-quality hardwood which is visually pleasing, while also being environmentally friendly. Once the cello has been completed, it is finished with a bright purple finish for an attractive appearance.
Fantastic value for money
The Harlequin range gives excellent value for money. It is a top choice for beginners or for schools and councils who are looking for an instrument that provides consistent quality and good value. It has become one of the most bought and recommended cellos for schools and teachers.
Everything you need
Included with the Stentor Harlequin cello is a lightweight padded case with plenty of storage. For ease of use, the case includes a shoulder strap, so commuting is never an issue. Perfect for students, the included P&H fibreglass cello bow has been designed with durability at its core. Thanks to the fibreglass bow stick, the P&H cello bow offers a well-balanced playing experience, while also being much tougher than wooden bows. Unlike wooden bows, the P&H fibreglass cello bow won't warp or bend as it is resilient to extreme weather conditions. This is particularly desirable for musicians who frequently tour or live in damp climates.
Widely used by both teachers and students, the P&H cello bow uses unbleached natural white horsehair to produce the best possible sound. What's more, P&H purposefully manufacture their bows to be re-haired at home, meaning no more expensive trips to the workshop.
