3/4 bow is made in Brazil of pernambuco wood. The stick is round, nickel-mounted with a full -lined ebony frog, 3-piece button. Weight 75.3 g Stamped by the maker D. Chagas (Arcos Brasil).
Models M, T and S of the same level number have the same price, but have different weights and characterists. With each change in level, different refinements in the bow technology and materials behave differently in the player’s hand. With so many models, levels, and sometimes the option of round or octagonal sticks, we cannot stock all items. Call us for more information, and we will discuss bow trials.

Quintus was one of only two makers that made 3/4 carbon fiber cellos, and this is one from 2000. Carbon fiber is resonant, durable, and immune to the hazards of temperature and humidity changes. The fingerboard is composite and does not need planing; likewise composite pegs which don’t shrink or swell. The bridge is still maple and can warp like any bridge, but for the most part you have a less-sensitive cello for kids or small adults who wish they could find a CF in their size.
Back length 680 mm
Upper bout 310 mm

While it has a top plate with “purfling” of red pinstripe, the molded back & ribs are one piece with rounded edges and button, making it comfortable to play.
