amazing videos! thank you for in depth scratching the surface explanations. I came across your videos because I bought a cello form a luthier in France. I had no teachers around and made a mistake that I realized when I went by curiosity to another luthier and realized how easy it was to play. I now see that the finger board isnt straight but goes to an angle toward the treble f hole and wonder if it affects the playability and sound. I keep thinking that I play in tune but when I record myself, it is hit and miss although my smaller 3/4 cello gave me better result. The cello that I tried in another shop another full size, was a delight to play, easy production of sound and I felt at home. Quite sad...keep doing videos please!
Thanks! The fingerboard must be straight and not in an angle! But this is mostly due to the neck being not stable or wrongly inserted at an angle in the first place. When you play not in tune it can also be because of a lack of overtones. This is what our customer give as a feedback when they use our Essentials (titanium parts), that they all of a sudden can hear when they play wrong tones and can correct it immediately! Because the instruments gains a lot of overtones and playability. Shure we will continue! But at the moment there‘s a lot private stuff going on so we cannot upload as regularly as in the past.
Danke, wieder sehr interessant. Macht schon Sinn. Wenn man auf dumpfen Instrumenten und eher hellen Instrumenten abwechselnd Aufnahmen macht und sich das dann hinterher anhört, dann kann man manchmal sehr staunen. Seltsamerweise spiele ich auf eher dumpfen Instrumenten automatisch sogar noch etwas tiefer ... warum, das habe ich auch noch nicht ganz verstanden, aber Eure Erklärung hier könnte tatsächlich die Erklärung sein, zumindest teilweise. Intonation ist ein endloses Thema. Einer meiner Geigenbauer meinte mal zu mir, dass die Intonation auch vom Verhältnis der Mensuren abhängig sei (Saitenlänge und Halsmensur). Ich konnte das bisher noch nicht so richtig bestätigen, da ich noch keine zwei Geigen gesehen habe, bei denen die Halsmensur exakt gleich gewesen wäre. Was meint Ihr dazu?
Mehr Obertöne und Brillanz hilft definitiv und wirken wie eine gute Brille für die Ohren: Man hört sehr viel deutlicher. Und zwischendurch mal etwas üben wird wohl auch nicht schaden 😋 Da hat dieser Geigenbauer vollkommen Recht. Das Verhältnis zwischen Decken- und Halsmensur muss stimmen, sonst spielt man falsch… bzw. kann keinen hohen Preis verlangen 😁
Wir haben uns ausgiebig beraten und sind zu dem Entschluss gekommen, dass wir beide nicht verstehen auf welche Aussage sich der Kommentar bezieht. Bitte dringend um Aufklärung! 😬😂
Does the quality of the fingerboard i.e. the quality of the ebony used to make it, influence the sound of the instrument ? I recently got an advice from a Luthier that my fingerboard doesn't have a good quality and suggested that i should change it. He said the wood shouldn't have so many pores and it shouldn't have brownish spots (mine has some) . What do you think ? How can you tell the difference between a fingerboard that has high quality and one that is poor?
YES! That's absolutely true, better quality of ebony makes a better more brilliant sound. The problem with bad quality (soft material with bigger pores which is lighter) is that it swallows overtones. Brownish spots aren't necessarily markers for bad quality, we measure ebony with ultrasonic to see how dense they are. Some of the highest quality also have those spots but nevertheless sound very brilliant. Ultrasonic is a very objective and reproducible method to detect high quality. NOTE: I don't know your instrument. If the overall quality of the instrument isn't that good a new expensive fingerboard probably won't improve a lot. Just to keep in mind.

Ich liebe Deine Videos und Deinen speziellen Schmäh! Liebe Grüße aus Wien! ❤🙌
So viel Liebe in einem Kommentar bin ich gar nicht gewohnt. 🤗
Es freut uns sehr, dass dir die Videos und unser Humor gefallen 😉
