Brandenburg 1180 Cello Outfit — Hand-Carved Step-Up Instrument

The Brandenburg 1180 Cello is a beautifully hand-carved step-up instrument crafted for advancing players who demand superior tone, craftsmanship, and playability. Carefully made in a small workshop, not on an assembly line, the 1180 stands out with its aged spruce top, flamed maple back and sides, and a resonant, even sound across all strings. Its lightweight fiberglass bow, upgraded dart case, and D’Addario Helicore strings round out an exceptional outfit that’s ready to perform — and teacher-approved.

  • Hand-Carved Aged Spruce & Maple: Solid, aged tonewoods with a finely graduated spruce top and subtly flamed maple back.

  • Professional Fittings: Ebony fingerboard and pegs, genuine Wittner tailpiece, and Sacconi loop.

  • Premium Setup & Strings: Fully adjusted bridge, fitted pegs, set sound post, and D’Addario Helicore strings (a $70 value).

  • Upgraded Accessories: Lightweight fiberglass bow with horsehair and a durable hardshell dart case with ample storage.

  • Superior Finish & Craftsmanship: Spirit varnish for better resonance and unique antiqued appearance — far beyond spray-on finishes.

Compared to the 880 series, the 1180 offers:
✓ More dynamic range and complexity from higher-quality woods and spirit varnish
✓ A lighter, more responsive bow
✓ A superior protective case and overall craftsmanship

This cello comes fully set up and ready to play, backed by a one-year materials and workmanship warranty. Available in 4/4 size in store (other sizes by special order).
