Key Features
Create a rich tone right away with this quality cello. The Yamaha VC5S student cello lets new musicians play a 1/4 size instrument that has been hand-sculpted with the techniques used on high-end string instruments. This artisan treatment of quality Spruce and Maple produces a gorgeous, warm cello tone. This ex-demo cello is a find, being in pristine condition except for the outer box.
Play confidently with advanced components. Your VC5S is put together with the best, which you can see in the Wittner tailpiece, giving you four integrated fine tuners in a lightweight tailpiece. It couldn't be easier to make adjustments to individual strings. These strings will be adding to your tone too, as Prelude strings are respected as bringing out the best in an instrument. Enjoy playing as soon as you get your cello.

Play a cello fit for your coming musical accomplishments. The Ebony fittings, as well as Spruce and Maple body, will create a strong tone that will resonate across a concert venue. An Ebony fingerboard is the perfect surface to play on. With a tight grain that requires no varnish, it lends itself perfectly to fast playability. This orchestral-standard feature means you can rest assured of accurate notes as part of an ensemble. As well as sounding the part, you'll look the part with the VC5S. Your cello looks sleek with a subtle shine thanks to the hand-brushed oil varnish. Your cello is performance-ready if you are.
