Boveda Starter Kit for cello (Large)

$25.99

Boveda is a two-way system which controls humidity in your case, whether it needs to be added or absorbed.  This starter kit includes the soft pockets into which the Boveda packets are placed (after removing them from their plastic wrapper).  Packets may remain effective for 2-6 months, and you can tell when they need replacement by how rigid they get.  Packet contents are natural salts and pure water.  The former starter kit included 4 packets, but this new kit has 3: one double pouch and one single.  Remember to keep your case closed as exposure to the air will shorten their life.   When unopened, the packets can be stored for two years.  You can order additional packets when we ship your starter kit, or as you need them in the future.  A short video  https://store.bovedainc.com/collections/boveda-for-wood-instruments/products/music-starter-kit

  • Stringvision Bow Grip

    The SV bow grip is a soft, pliable non-latex elastomer that slides (more like putting on a wet bathing suit) from the screw end over the frog to help protect the stick from wear, and provide a very comfortable place for your thumb.   You can still maneuver the bow with your fingers, and your thumb is not locked in one position, though it is oriented well and cannot poke through.   A very popular item here.  *Note:  If the thumbnail is not kept short, you can wear through the rubber quickly.  Also, repeated installation and removal, or rolling the rubber back on itself can lead to material failure.  Weight 7.4 grams, top is 3.5″ long, bottom is 1.75″ long

  • Boveda replacement packs (4)

    These packets are for 49% relative humidity, size 70.  Cellos, due to their size, require 4 packets to properly manage humidity in your case, which should be kept closed.   As long as you already have the soft pouch from your starter kit, you just need one set of 4 to keep your Boveda going for another 2-6 months.  Life of the product varies because conditions vary.  Contents of packet are  natural salts and pure water.  When your existing packets have gotten rigid — and you should note an increase in the size — it’s time to replace them.  Packets in their sealed plastic have a shelf life of two years.   A short video  https://bovedainc.com/question/when-do-i-replace-my-instruments-boveda/

  • Cello Stand – Ingles

    ** Available for pickup here; we are not currently shipping this item.

    Ingles gig stand allows you to keep any size cello, with its endpin extended, ready to play. Folding nearly flat for storage, it features two height-adjustable cushioned arms to support the cello’s bottom and a third with a safety bar to secure the neck. Bow hangs from cushioned hook out of harm’s way, behind the instrument and off the floor. The open stand is 21″ across and uses 24″ front-to-back if placed to access the bow hook.  Weighs 8.2 lbs. This is the most varnish-friendly stand because the only contact points are edges of bottom ribs, and the neck.  We use these in the shop, and they are stable — but avoid placing in precarious places.
