Accessories, etc.

  1. Rosin

  • And an 8" by 8" cloth (to wipe off excess rosin). Old tee-shirts work great.


  1. Cello Anchor

  • One with an adjustable strap and a deep cup is best.

  • Make sure they are the correct size (i.e. if you are playing a 3/4-size cello, make sure you get 3/4-size strings).
