Piece for Upper/Lower Cello Blocks European Spruce

Description of Piece for Upper/Lower Cello Blocks European Spruce

This European spruce block, from which the upper or lower cello block is cut, is essential for its characteristics: it is light, resistant and can withstand tension without deformation. Because it is square and close to the required final dimensions, it allows significant savings of time and effort in the construction of the instrument. This is particularly useful for luthiers or amateurs who do not have special machines or tools, as it offers a practical and efficient solution for making cues without compromising the quality or precision of the work.

The upper block guarantees the strength of the neck socket and supports the constant pressure of the strings, while the lower block supports the spike or strut that anchors the instrument to the floor and also supports the tension of the tailpiece and strings. Thanks to the strength and flexibility of European spruce, these blocks contribute to a durable and efficient construction, both structurally and acoustically.
