Cello Soundpost Stick

Available in regular (5-6 grain) and select (7-10 grain) wood. Specifications High quality spruce wood Yields 1 sound post The cello's soundpost is a small cut and fitted spruce dowel that sits inside the cello and is strategically placed for optimal sound. Its function is to carry vibrations from the top plate to the bottom plate. Optimal fitting and placement of the soundpost will make your instrument sound much better. When cutting a new soundpost, bear in mind that the end grain should run perpendicular to the top grain. A perfect fit on both surfaces is essential to a great result. It's better to cut a slightly too long soundpost to allow for mistakes and tone adjustment which can easily be shortened, than to make the post too short. Longer posts will locate closer to the center of the instrument whereas shorter posts will locate closer to the E string f-hole side. Longer posts tend to favor darker deeper tones, whereas shorter posts favor brighter higher tones.Moving the post
