Howard Core Academy A35 Model cello Outfit

The Howard Core Academy Cello is a beautifully balanced step-up instrument designed for advancing students who are ready to refine their sound and technique. Handcrafted with a fully carved spruce top and a lightly flamed maple back, this cello produces a warm, resonant tone with excellent projection and depth. The laminated maple sides add extra strength and stability, making it an ideal choice for school programs, private study, or ensemble use.

With its clear, responsive tone and smooth playability, the Core Academy Cello helps developing cellists achieve expressive control across all registers. Its inlaid purfling enhances durability while preserving traditional craftsmanship. Over time, the instrument’s tonal character matures beautifully, rewarding the player with a richer, more nuanced voice.

Fitted with ebony pegs and endpin, a French bridge, and a composite tailpiece with integrated fine tuners, this cello ensures reliable tuning and effortless handling. Strung with D’Addario Prelude strings, it offers a pleasing blend of warmth, clarity, and stability—perfect for both ensemble and solo settings.
