1.0 out of 5 stars Do not purchase this Cello!!!, November 1, 2006

This review is from: Full Size Cello with Case

I purchased this Cello for my daughter who has been playing Cello for three years in Middle School. First it did not ship on time so we didn't have it for the beginning of school. Second, the Hard Case has been discontinued so it came with a Soft Case. Third, the strings would not stay tight long enough to play it. Fourth, there are no fine tuners to get it in tune if the strings would stay tight. After my daughter and her orchestra instructor couldn't make it work, I took it to a local musical instrument shop who quoted $250.00 to make it playable. The only valid use of this product that I can think of is for a stage prop. Fifth, after returning the Cello (and paying for return shipping), I had to fight with Austin Bazaar for a full refund. They claimed that it was not defective and charged a $50.00 restocking fee. Amazon A-Z Protection was very helpful in resolving the refund.
