Features
Beautiful, eye-catching wood finish
The unique character of natural wood is highlighted by the thin coating on the frame, body and neck which brings out the sharp detail of the wood grain.
Beautiful, high-quality appearance
Available as Pearl White colour variations. These highlight the player’s individuality and allow for a more stage-focused performance.
Intuitive Operation and Sound Creation
Machine-type tuning pegs, which are highly rated for use on stage. They enable quick tuning even during live performances.
The internal cavity structure, inherited from previous models, brings out acoustic resonance even in instruments with no sound box.
Feel the true cello tone, a rich, vibrant sound ideal for the stage.
Combination of the different sound types, blend control, equaliser (treble and bass) and reverbs allow for a high degree of freedom in sound creation.

The SVC300C has folding legs and removable chest and arm supports. It offers fast, fuss-free setup and in its performance configuration provides the player with a natural comfort and excellent support.
Dedicated SRT Powered System for the SVC300 Series
Based on our SRT Powered System* technology, we have optimised the methods of creating SRT data and measuring basic recording data for the SVC300 series.
The circuits are designed to bring out the distinct tonal characteristics of the SVC300C and SVC300F.

*What is the SRT Powered System?
The SRT (Studio Response Technology) Powered System is a digital technology that, based on an analysis of the sound of acoustic instruments, adds natural tone and resonance in real time to the sound of instruments that do not have a large sound box, like our Silent Cello.
The SRT Powered System is a proven technology used in our electric violins and silent basses.
The system reproduces the player’s unique expression by adding resonance to the analogue signal from the instrument’s pickups, rather than relying on any sampled sounds.
