Adolph Ficker 2007 Montagnana Model $2250
Adolph Ficker, 2007, Montagnana Model Domeneco Montagnana was an 18th century Venetian maker who pioneered a slightly shorter but decidedly wider model that was especially effective in cellos. (Yo-Yo Ma plays a Montagnana). The result was, as one might expect, a deep bassy resonance difficult to duplicate in a narrower instrument. Until recently however, commercial (and often maker) copies while achieving the rich bass sounds, tended to be weak in the upper register. The Ficker models, using very high grade spruce for the top, and making the model slightly narrower than the original Montagnanas, have an upper register that is as strong as the lower one. The Fickers are attractively varnished and we put our professional set up on them.
