The Eastman Model 405 7/8-size cello is a high-quality step-up instrument, featuring a hand-carved spruce top, flamed maple back and sides, and a warm antique-style varnish inspired by old German workshops. Its classic reddish-brown finish and elegant craftsmanship give it a refined, aged look.

Designed for players seeking a slightly smaller body and shorter scale length without sacrificing tone, the 7/8-size cello offers improved comfort and playability—especially for petite adults and growing students. With a rich, mellow sound, quick response, and quality fittings including a Wittner tailpiece and Despiau 2-tree bridge, this cello is a perfect balance of size, tone, and craftsmanship.

The setup on this cello includes:

• Larsen A and D strings
• Spirocore G and C strings
• Wittner Ultra tailpiece with fine tuners
• Carbon Fiber endpin
• Ebony pegs with brass pins
