Modern Cellos by Walter Mahr "Cellos...with a soul.... from
Bavaria." Mahr's cellos have a sweet and powerful tone. His tonal investigations
are evident in every example of his work. (Charles Magby offers
a substantial collection of fine cellos, violins and violas in various
grades made by Mahr.) Cellos are modeled after the work
of Guarneri, Stradivari and Henrik Jacobs in a wide range of
qualities. He makes superior instruments for student players with a well-grained,
solid maple back, pine wood top and ebony fittings... up to superbly made
masterpieces with marvelously textured maple. Mahr's select tonal
wood is carefully seasoned up to 50 years. Mahr can vary the mixture of
his oil and spirit varnish according to the desired tonal properties required
by a player. Walter Mahr's grandfather was a mandolin-maker in Schonback. In addition, his great grandfather was a violinmaker. Walter Mahr worked with master craftsman Ernst Heinrich Roth, the cello maker Lothar Semmlinger and with Roderich Paesold.

Carón cellos are known for their carrying power in a hall and their incredible ease of playing. It is the perfect cello for a professional performer in any venue. David Carón says about his varnish: "It is chemically stable. It is tough, but flexible. It has a very high melting point. Most of all, because of its flexibility, it produces a smooth, deep, open sound". CM#4940

SOLD: Cello by David Carón #90, Taos, N.M., made in 1989. This very fine example of David’s Work was made for a member of the Dallas Symphony who has since retired. The wood on this instrument is nothing short of spectacular, with highly flamed Bosnian maple back, sides and scroll, and unusually tight, even grained Engelmann spruce. The varnish is David’s usual highly transparent reddish-orange brown Cremonese-style oil varnish. If you need to win a major symphony audition, you don’t have to look any further. SOLD: Cello by William Harris Lee, Chicago, Illinois, made in 1995. This is an attractive cello. The front is of exceptional two-piece hazel pine of even grain. The back is two-piece maple cut half on the slab with appealing figure throughout. The sides and scroll are of corresponding material. CM#4745
