NS Design WAV5 Electric Cello 5 Amberburst

For the cellist who wants to dive into the electric world, the cellos in the WAV series offer superior design and performance than any other instrument. The instruments are compact and light, but at the same time they offer thick characteristics and performance. Faithful to the NS Design tradition, the WAV series captures the essence of acoustic instruments and at the same time offers new sound possibilities

Thanks to electronics based on the Polar Pickup System, the WAV series provides a natural cello tone free from feedback. Since 100% of the sound is provided by the pickup, using loops or other electronic effects is much easier and more effective.

The design offers convenient access to the entire keyboard and all the freedom of movement on stage. The special asymmetric keyboard, a distinctive feature of all NS design arches, offers extraordinary comfort from the lowest to the highest positions. To meet the preferences of each player, the string height can be easily changed thanks to the height-adjustable bridge and the easily accessible truss

The WAV Cello is available in 4- and 5-string models with various color options.
