Structural & Repair Status (Transparent Condition Notes)

• The Neck Joint Crack: This instrument previously suffered a crack located near the critical neck joint area.
• The Repair: The crack has been completely and professionally repaired and stabilized. The joint is firmly set, glued cleanly, and fully hardened to support standard string tension across the entire fingerboard layout. It does not flex, compromise playability, or impact the sonic projection of the instrument.
• Cosmetic Presentation: Aside from the repaired crack zone, the cello is in nice physical shape for a 2006 model. It shows typical, minor cosmetic scuffs and edge wear from student handling, but the varnish still looks beautiful.

Sizing & Setup Details

• 3/4 Fractional Sizing: This model is perfect for growing players generally between the ages of 9 to 12, or measuring between 4'6" and 5'0" in total height.
• Hardware Setup: Outfitted with smooth-turning tuning pegs, a carved bridge, a durable tailpiece with integrated fine-tuners for hassle-free pitch adjustments, and a secure, adjustable endpin assembly.

What’s Included

• Artisan Strings Marcato Model 100 3/4 Cello
• Cello Travel Case (Please verify the exact style—padded soft bag or hard shell—via your listing photographs)
• Note: A bow or rosin is not included with this package unless explicitly pictured.

Standard Reverb Shipping & Instrument Guidelines

• Packaging: Shipping orchestral stringed instruments requires absolute precision. To protect the professional neck repair and body structure, the strings will be slacked slightly to reduce excess downward compression on the top soundboard. The entire cello body will be cushioned inside its case, and the case will be suspended within a thick, double-walled box utilizing form-fitting shock absorption to ensure safe delivery.
• Shipping: Ships promptly with tracking. Please check our feedback and buy with confidence!
