Roderich Paesold cello, made in 1990, No. 602 Reference: Current model (PA602J) new price: ¥825,000 (tax included) For those starting cello, or looking to upgrade from a beginner instrument. I think it's impossible to get this high-quality cello at this price at a musical instrument store. Please consider it. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Made about 35 years ago, it was made in an environment where higher-quality wood was more readily available than it is now. Furthermore, the wood has aged and dried over time, and the sound has matured, giving it a better atmosphere than new instruments. As expected of Paesold, it's gentle, powerful, and has depth. It's a good instrument that I can confidently recommend. The 602 is a standard grade in the Paesold lineup, but I think the sound is comparable to high-class models. The current model of the same grade costs over 800,000 yen new, so it's a great deal to get a cello of this quality at this price, even used. There are small scratches, but there are no major damages, and it's in good condition considering the number of years since it was made. Because it's large, I would like to prioritize those who can pick it up directly in Kawaguchi City, Saitama Prefecture, but shipping is also possible. Shipping costs will be about 9,000 yen (cash on delivery). (Please note that Hokkaido, Okinawa, and remote islands may be more expensive) Please note that a bow is not included. The soft case has some signs of use, so please consider it as a bonus for transportation (there is some peeling of the leather, but the condition is not that bad). Quoting the introduction of the current model (PA602J) This model, finished in an antique style, is a Paesold masterpiece made with high-quality wood. The high skills of the craftsmen are clearly expressed, and it achieves a performance that exceeds the price in both appearance and sound quality. With a brilliant tone and excellent articulation, it is a high-quality German cello recommended for first-time players. #Roderich Paesold #Paesold #Roderich #Roderich
