The 7/8 cello, designed to become Prototype II, has arrived. It is a new, Chinese-made four string instrument (Maker: A. Eastman) with a body length of 710 mm (4/4: 750) and string length from nut to bridge of 670 mm (4/4: 690mm).
TEST RESULTS [5] (Featuring the new four-string cello without any changes)
The cello was tested for several days and proved to have a quite balanced sound-quality through all strings and positions.
The sound properties of the new cello and the Prototype I then were digitally recorded and stored.
