GEWA Georg Walther Cello, Poplar 4/4

GEWA "Georg Walther" Concert Cello — European Poplar, Made in Germany

The GEWA Georg Walther cello is the flagship of the German master workshops, reserved for instruments of the highest class. This specific version features a back and sides made from hand-selected European Poplar, a tonewood prized for its ability to produce a deep, warm, and dark tone reminiscent of historical Italian master instruments. Handcrafted under the guidance of Thomas Böhme, this cello is a true masterpiece of acoustic engineering.

To ensure a professional performance from the first note, the instrument comes in a ready-to-play setup featuring a premium Larsen string mix recommended by Dr. Thomas Zwieg. The Magnacore Arioso C and G strings provide massive resonance, while the Original Medium A and D strings ensure brilliant clarity in the higher register.
