Keep your instrument safe by keeping it in the case when not in use.
Loosen the bow's horse hair (turn screw to left) before putting bow tip first into holder.
Always handle with care. String instruments are fragile and made of thin wood.
Cellists should lean their instruments on the side when not in use (not on backs).
Use a clean, soft cloth to wipe off rosin dust from your instrument.
Do not use cleaning solutions or liquids to clean your instrument.
Store the instrument in a place that is not too hot and not too cold.
Avoid placing near heaters, drafty windows, leaving outside or in the car.
String instruments are very sensitive and could crack or undergo damages under extreme temperatures
String instruments require at least 30% humidity to stay in good playing condition. If you would like information about case humidifiers or humidifiers for your home, please contact me for more information.
