Old German, Neukirchen c. 1780
A fine old cello of German origin circa 1780, labeled “Johann Adam Reichel / Musicalischer Instrumentenmacher / in Neukirchen, AD 1782”. This is a 7/8 cello measuring 28-1/2 inches (72.4 cm) in body length making it ideal for a player with smaller hands. The tone is mature and full-bodied with richness to please the established player. It has been recently restored and is in very healthy condition.
