This level of instrument is the first model to be crafted in the ‘inner sanctum’ of Gliga’s workshops. Outstanding tone wood applies at this level which has been naturally dried for many years. The wood is weighed and inspected regularly to gauge the rate of seasoning. The correct level of retained moisture content is vital well before the precious woods are considered for crafting.
Award winning violin maker, Mr Vasile Gliga, has been creating instruments since 1980 in his workshop in central Romania. Starting from the humble beginnings of working in a tiny workshop hand-crafting just two violins per month, his talent and passion for instrument making has been the driving factor, leading him to grow the now internationally recognised Gliga brand.
Made in Romania, Gliga instruments are popular among students of all levels and are regularly recommended by music teachers.
The Gliga Vasile Advanced Cello is a beautiful instrument suited to the advancing student. Superior to the Gliga student series, this package comes with higher grade timbers to ensure the tone will mature as much as possible. This will allow the player to sound the best they can.
Gliga instruments are fitted with high quality bridges, strings, tailpieces and more so you can be sure you are getting the best value and sound out of your instrument. The Gliga Vasile Advanced Cello has been set up by our professional luthier with 70 years experience.
