Knowing the Heinrich Gill W1 Cello
One of the best options for the intermediate student is the Heinrich Gill W1 cello. Since the pedigree or the caliber of the luthier is a very important consideration in choosing a good cello, the student should feel comfortable with the W1 cello because Heinrich Gill string instruments of exceptional quality have been around since 1952. No luthiers worth their salt can exist for decades, if the quality and beauty of their string instruments are below par.
The Heinrich Gill Company also owns one of the largest storage of age tone woods in the whole world. As such, they have a whole assortment of age woods that would be superb materials for fantastic cellos. Usually, Heinrich Gill luthiers handpick woods that have been stored for at least 10 years. The student should be assured of the meticulous care, planning, and craftsmanship that goes into the creation of the Heinrich Gill W1 cello.
Like most popular cello choices on the market, the W1 features an aged look as well. However, instead of making it look extremely hold, the luthiers put their own spin on the cello and make it look like a century old cello. The craftsmanship and quality are very evident in the way the W1 is made.
When it comes to sound quality, the W1 model has a resonant and ringing tone with plenty of focus at the top. It is also loud enough and powerful enough to really matter. The intermediate student and even early professionals should really give this cello a big shot.
