Hand crafted from select tonewoods
Andreas Eastman step-up instruments leverage a combination of European and Chinese tonewoods that have been aged and seasoned to enhance their resonance and tonal qualities. Once the wood has been selected, master luthiers meticulously craft the instruments using traditional European methods. These techniques ensure that your cello possesses the utmost sound quality and durability. The spruce tops and flamed maple backs provide a clear, balanced sound with enough power for you to be heard in any orchestra. With the rich, illustrious sound of the VC305, you’ll perform with confidence in any setting.
Impeccable attention to detail
The VC305 plays with a bold sound, thanks to its exceptional craftsmanship and immaculate details. Everything from the expertly carved scroll to the ebony fittings is emblematic of an esteemed cello worth playing. Even the outside edges of its body are bordered with genuine hand-inlaid purfling. These fine details add to the cello’s charm and beauty while also protecting it from cracking. To top it all off, the Andreas Eastman VC305 boasts a beautiful Shaded Spirit Varnish that brings out all the intricate details of the wood. Such advanced appointments ensure that your cello will play with a powerful, rich tone over its lifetime.
Eastman: crafting fine instruments since 1992
Accomplished flutist Qian Ni founded Eastman in 1992 after graduating from the Boston University School of Music. Similar to Sweetwater, Eastman started as a one-man operation, with Ni selling instruments out of the back of his car. Today, Eastman is a global maker of musical instruments, but they've never lost sight of their humble beginnings. Players — both students and professionals alike — searching for an instrument with outstanding sound, comfortable playability, and traditional craftsmanship will find exactly what they're looking for from Eastman.
