Stentor Student I Cello Outfit
Stentor · Student I Cello Outfit
The first cello,
hand-carved from solid tonewoods.
Stentor’s most popular entry-level cello outfit. Hand-carved spruce front, solid maple back and sides, and a complete outfit for the first lessons. Reliable from young beginners on fractional sizes through to teenagers and adults on full size.
About the outfit
A settled first cello.
The Stentor Student I is the entry point Symphonia reaches for most often. It is hand-carved from solid spruce and maple rather than pressed plywood, which means it actually responds to bow work and improves as the player improves. Setup is consistent and dependable across sizes.
