The Hellier strad pics

16 December 2012 - 05:57 AM

Hi everyone,

Does any of you know a decent source for strad Helier pics? I can only find the pics in the Wikipedia, and I would need some more pics in order to start a challenging making.

Regards

Ps: hey Linkman, where are you when I need you.

Strad decorated cello that got the neck broken a couple of months ago is back at the Palacio Real. The cello was restored by Carlos Arcieri in New York. The broken neck was dated 1857 when the neck was modernized. The instrument is appraised in 15 million €.

Bass bar too long?

22 September 2012 - 02:24 AM

Hi guys,

I have recently finished the top of my new baby. It is based on a slightly modified strad G form. I have a 357 mm long top. If I use the rule I allways use to cut my bass bars: 7/9 the lenght of the top minus 80mm I get a 277 mm bass bar. Will it be too long? I am tempted to stay at the usual 270 mm lenght, as I am not sure what will be teh effect of such a bar.

And another question: If I finally decide to put the long bar, shall I also make it a little higher? Is the hight of the bar proportional to the lenght, or should I stay with the standard height that involves the top thickness?

The top is 357 mm long, it has a quite uniform thickness of 2.2-2.6 mm (slightly thicker near the f holes and around the soundpost area, around 2.9mm) and weights 64 grams (without the bass bar, of course)
