  • 1/2 size Andreas Eastman model 600 (2001)

    1/2 size Andreas Eastman model 600 (2001)

    We first sold this cello in 2001, and after being with families in NY and SC, it’s looking for a forever home.  I say that because we stopped working with the small cellos, and are not going to able to trade it up to the next size.  It may be a wonderful addition to a studio or school with a constant supply of 1/2 sized cellists.  PegHeds have just been installed for effortless and stable tuning.  Original endpin fitting was replaced with a composite by NHM, and removable endpin is 21.5″  Wittner tailpiece.  Not all 1/2 size cellos have the same dimensions and contours.  Oh, this specific model is still made by Eastman but not in small fractional sizes anymore.
