The result is a deep, striking finish that reveals the dynamic carbon weave under the light. Immune to temperature and humidity fluctuations, it handles tour life and transit without warping or needing time to settle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pickup is the Cordasonus system. Built around a specialized German ceramic crystal, this passive piezoelectric system requires no battery. Sitting directly in the bridge, the sensor reads vibrations at the energy source. It delivers an ultra-wide 10 Hz–80 kHz frequency range with high feedback resistance on loud stages.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRotate the bridge sensor in 45-degree increments to shape your tone in seconds, from focused and direct to broad and open. Outputting via a standard 1\/4\" jack, the integrated pickup preserves the cello's authentic acoustic voice when unplugged.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"heading heading--small\"\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eStrings:\u003c\/b\u003e Larsen Aurora\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePegs:\u003c\/b\u003e Wittner Finetune-Pegs, stable in any climate\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFingerboard:\u003c\/b\u003e CITES free composite, smooth and durable\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eEndpin:\u003c\/b\u003e Carbon fiber, with a solid locking screw\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePickup:\u003c\/b\u003e Cordasonus, 1\/4\" jack, no battery\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eErgonomics:\u003c\/b\u003e The neck transition and string length is to Stradivari standards, so a player used to a wood instrument has nothing to relearn\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWarranty:\u003c\/b\u003e 5 years on the body\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mezzo-Forte","offers":[{"title":"Carbon Fiber \/ 4-String","offer_id":47431619608751,"sku":null,"price":5849.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Carbon Fiber \/ 5-String","offer_id":47431620427951,"sku":null,"price":6099.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Orchestra Finish \/ 4-String","offer_id":47431619641519,"sku":null,"price":6849.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Orchestra Finish \/ 5-String","offer_id":47431620460719,"sku":null,"price":7099.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2966\/4646\/products\/Mezzo_Forte_Carbon_Fiber_Cello-2.jpg?v=1615236265","url":"https:\/\/fiddlershop.com\/products\/mezzo-forte-hybrid-carbon-fiber-cello","provider":"Fiddlershop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
