Which of the following do you think I guess get next for my cello?
1) A set of strings (yet to be decided, but this is for later, perhaps a few months, as backup strings)
2) A carbon fibre bow (90 USD?)
3) A carbon fibre endpin (50 USD?)
Which one of those will most improve my sound? I have an intermediate wooden cello bow, and I am thinking of using a carbon fibre bow as my main bow.
or will a carbon fibre endpin help my cello more?
Honestly I'm not too keen on the strings, until later, so it's either a bow or an endpin.
or you can suggest alternatives, but I can't think of anything else. I just want my cello to sound warmer and more mellow. My cello is REALLY harsh on the high notes (from middle A onwards it gets unbearable, I'm thinking of getting a soundpost adjustment too.). Advice and comments are welcome
As for the strings, I am looking for a student priced set of strings which will give me a really really warm and mellow sound.
Jargar A
Jargar D
Pirastro Chromcor Plus G
Pirastro Chromcor Plus C
Not sure of the above combination will work, but it's the cheapest and I have had most experience with them (besides the Jargar D).
