  1. I'm not a cellist, but I do know that Yamaha is pretty good for most of their instruments. Even when they aren't a personal choice, its rarely because they aren't good instruments. +1 I've had a number of different Yamaha instruments and so far they've all lived up to their reputation for making decent quality stuff across a range of prices. Another option that might be worth looking into is purpose made electric pickups for use with a standard cello. The ones that I've come across replace the bridge with one that has an inbuilt pickup, or pick ups. I don't know what the range of quality is like but a friend had one on an upright acoustic 'double bass' and was happy with it. Depending on what you're after, having such a pickup can be an advantage, as you can still play either plugged or unplugged, and attach it to an existing instrument - a good second hand one for instance. Of course, if the aim is to get something more compact, then that might not appeal so much. A quick Google threw up a fair range of different manufacturers of the pickups.
