NS Design NXTa Series 4-String Electric Cello Satin Sunburst with Gig Bag and Stand

General

The NS Design NXTa Electric Cello has a satisfyingly compact, solid-body build loaded with active electronics, which gives it the edge over traditional acoustic cellos in more than one way. For a start, the design does away with wolf tones, and it also counters feedback and gives players to freedom to roam around the stage and play solos at any volume. Also, since the sound stems from the built-in pickup, you have the option to run a looper or expand your setup with other effect pedals to enhance your sound.
