Lost in
Manufacturers
I am just beginning to play and
looking to get my first instrument. I have tried to find sites that
tell more about different producers of cellos and how they compare.
No luck finding one. I have ran across the same names and wondered
which were worth looking at and which are not.
Gliga,
Duetsch,and Englehardt Any help would be much appreciated.

What you definitely want to avoid is
a plywood monster. I'm not 100% certain, but I think Englehart is
plywood. I'm not familiar with Gliga. The first cello I bought was a
Rudolph Doetsch, and if that's the brand you're refering to, they're
pretty good instruments with a nice big sound.
I highly
recommend you contact Ellen at Cellos2go. She's extremely
knowledgeable, and even more helpful.
Good luck.

Val,
You are going about your
search the right way - asking fellow cellists their opinions is much
more valuable than trying to get information from a site that will
more than likely be biased toward its own brand of instruments.
Remember, only you can make the decision of which instrument is
right for you - you are the one who has to play it day after day
:-)
I strongly suggest you perform a search on the board as
there is a lot of information about many different brands already
posted on the board, so you might have all your questions already
answered. Perform a search (using the search function at the top
right) and enter some key words to direct your search. You will
probably come up with 15 - 30 messages directly dealing with various
new instrument brands, and what the cellists on the board think
about them.
Good luck in your search!
Todd
