Violin for sale which would be suitable for a student – it was chosen for me by my teacher at the Junior Royal Academy of Music. It is German, non-labelled, made circa 1895 -1905, all verified by Stringers in St John’s Wood. The condition is good, with just one small section which requires re-gluing, which Stringers said was very minor and would cost around £80/100 to repair. It needs new strings etc, but is in otherwise good condition. There is no bow. The value by Stringers and another independent valuer is £1800-2200. I would accept an offer.  I live in Golders Green, NW11, and you are welcome to view by arrangement. 07733 272 186 susannebramson@hotmail.com

Full-size (4/4) cello to sell

It is a Joseph Channing Chinese-Canadian instrument, made in 1999, I have been the sole owner since then and it was purchased from Hamilton Caswell’s in Bristol. It is in great condition and had a new Michael Shakespeare bridge put on since purchasing; I have attached a few photos.
Last valued at c. £2000

Cello – Nearly new, full size, pristine and including rigid fibreglass case, bow, music stand, assorted music books etc. 

We bought the cello new in 2012 from Stringers, an extremely reputable music shop in London, with expertise in cellos.  Proof of purchase can be provided. 
 
It is ‘as new’ i.e. in excellent condition.  I have been speaking to Stringers about a fair re-sale price and they have said £1,250 and I would consider very good offers in this price range.
 
The cello is called ‘superior’ and it was made in China and then finished in London workshop.
 
The condition of this cello is fantastic – the price includes the rigid fiberglass case (very expensive to purchase and in pristine condition), bow, metal music stand, selected cello books etc.  My daughter has now decided that she will no longer be playing cello and has just left for University; thus the sale.
 
We live in North Finchley and I am happy for you to come and try it out before deciding.  It needs tuning (my daughter is not at home to tune) – so come prepared to tune it!
