Hi, I read your post when looking for somebody who could give me information about the same thing. I play cello in a rock band and for the moment I've been getting by with a pickup (barcus berry) . It's not as expensive as an electric cello but has some inconveniences when playing outside because of some technical problems, as coupling (i'm not sure of this expression) and difficulties at the moment of listening to myself. So I thought the solution is to look for an electric one. I've been suggested to buy a Yamaha Silent Cello (SVC210) but I haven't found where to try it. The other option I've been studying is this one: http://www.bridgeinstruments.co.uk/elec_cellos.html I know that it is the choice of one of the components of sigur ros, and it makes me think that it's a good option as well, but i don't really know because of the same problem: nowhere to try it. Maybe somebody could give us some advice?
