The Inside of Cello

Internally, the cello has two characteristics, a bass bar, which is glued to the inside of the cello section, and a round wooden sound post, which is placed between the top and bottom plate. Bass bar is located under the bass foot of the bridge, under the treble side of the bridge and connects the front and back of the cello. Like a bridge, sound post is also not glued and only retained by tightening the strings and bridge. Bass bar and sound post transfer their vibrations Valentine upper strings cello (front and little impact to the rear), and serves as a diaphragm to produce sound.

Cello constructed and repaired using a strong glue that is hidden but can be removed, which is useful in the process of demolition. The top glued using glue melted, because the repair process is usually necessary to disassemble these parts. In theory, the glue is weaker than the wood frame, so when the parts of the cello began to shrink, the adhesive glue will come off and avoid damage to the cello. However, this theory does not always work in reality.

Traditionally, bows are made from pernambuco or Brazil wood. Both are made from the same tree species (Caelsapiuna echinata), but pernambuco, used in arc with better quality, which is the core of the wood of a tree with a darker shade of wood Brazil (which is sometimes stained).

Pernambuco is a heavy wood and a remarkable degree of elasticity which makes it very ideal for use as a bow. There is also a bow made of carbon fiber is stronger than wood. Bows are widely used by students are usually made of fiberglass. Arc length is typically about 73 cm, with tinngi 3 cm, and 1.5 cm wide.

Typically use a horse hair bow, or can also use synthetic hair with a variety of colors. It is then coated with a gala to make it faster and can vibrate. The hair needs to be replaced periodically or when the hair has dropped out or is less tight. Hair can also be maintained firmness with a panel nut.
