Questions people ask

How is cello size chosen?
Size depends mostly on the player's height and arm length. A music teacher or string shop can measure and suggest the right fraction.
Does a cello need a stand or endpin stopper?
An endpin stopper keeps the cello from sliding on hard floors. A stand is optional but helps protect the instrument between practices.
