DESCRIPTION

This 3d printable electronic Cello features an integrated sound chamber with sound post and bass bar to better replicate the sound of acoustic cellos. It is a full sixed 4:4 cello and uses standard off the shelf cello wood components and strings. It is designed for printing on larger printers such as the Lulzbot Taz or CR10S with a 300mm bed. After 1 year of testing, we are finally ready to release this project. During that 1 year time the cello has remained in tune, playable, and has not shown any strain or cracking. Sound quality seems to be comparable to a mid-range acoustic cello, and can be amplified for concert use quite easily. There is a basic instructions document uploaded, V2 with a more in depth BoM and better diagrams is on the way. This project assumes you have advanced 3d printing skills and basic luthier sills at your disposal.
