Product Information
The Messina is the first in Stentor’s range of high-grade orchestral models. These are superb handcrafted instruments, carved from selected and figured tonewoods. The Messina cello is made in a specialist hand workshop within the Stentor factory where the most skilled individual workers produce under the close supervision of a master maker, in a traditional luthier's environment that would be familiar to makers throughout the centuries. The result is a fine instrument with a superior finish and sound. The violin is carved from solid tonewoods and finished with a hand-applied traditional shellac varnish and fitted with Pirastro strings.
Professional Set Up
All instruments are professionally set up by our resident Bridge Street Luthier for a high quality sound. This set up includes peg adjustment, finger board resurfacing, top nut adjustment, sound post and bridge fitting, adjustments for optimal string height and playing comfort.
