Description

Fine tuners are sold separately. To order them with your tailpiece, add them from the Fine Tuners page.

This Harp style cello tailpiece combines a distinctive asymmetric shape with the low weight and strength of layered carbon fiber. Its matt twill weave offers a subtle, low-reflection look while retaining the carbon fiber texture. Made for a 4/4 cello, it measures approximately 232 mm in overall length.

The Harp style changes the afterlength of each string—the section between the bridge and the tailpiece—by a different amount. This gives a luthier another way to explore the instrument’s response and overtones during setup. The audible effect depends on the individual cello, strings and adjustment.

Handmade from real layered carbon fiber composite, this tailpiece weighs approximately 23–26 g without fine tuners. Its low mass can help the cello respond more freely, with greater clarity and resonance, depending on the setup. Carbon fiber also resists changes in temperature and humidity. Each tailpiece comes with a Kevlar tailcord for installation.

Key features:

  • Real layered carbon fiber composite, handmade for 4/4 cello
  • Harp style graduated string afterlengths for setup flexibility
  • Approximately 23–26 g without fine tuners
  • Matt twill weave finish with a subtle, low-reflection look
  • Resistant to temperature and humidity changes
  • Kevlar tailcord included

For cellists looking to explore the Harp style’s playing response, this tailpiece pairs the potential to fine-tune the setup with a distinctive carbon fiber appearance.
