阿囡都係高弦的,十月份考完3級試都要換琴,阿Sir說學校offer的7/8大提琴都是大陸琴,但絃線(約$1200)及其他配件都換上較好的歐洲貨,加埋用碳纖維盒就要差不多二萬元,真的很貴。7/8是Lady Full Size,一般都不須再換(不過有些女仔都要用4/4的琴),而家管弦分部教大提琴的Miss Chung都係用緊呢隻7/8琴。學校叫大家換呢隻琴,是想比賽時出來的音色統一啲。

May I know which class is your daughter, my daughter is at 4B. My daughter is only 137cm, I know that Ms Luk ask them to change to a 7/8 size cello but it seems to be too big for my daughter unless she does not take ABRSM next year, so we are still thinking which size should we go for.

My daughter is in P3. Comparatively, she is a tall one in this age. That's why his cello tutor ask her to change a 7/8 in early May. But in fact, I think she should use 4/4 cello some years later. So, I choose to buy cello at HK Strings becasue they have trade-in policy.
