This Antonio Ramirez cello is from the workshop of Michael Goronok, a maker whose line of cellos is known for having a fabulous quality of sound for the money. This cello is no exception, providing a round, mature tone with ease. It is even throughout all registers and responds well to different articulations and dynamics. Equally lovely is its delicate, orange-brown varnish. This instrument is suited for the advancing student looking for a smooth, full sound.
