The Gliga II outfits are superb intermediate/advanced student instruments, handcrafted in the Romanian Gliga workshops. Featuring a tighter grained solid spruce top as well as a flamed sycamore maple neck, back, and sides which helps overall instrument resonance and projection. Other woods used are ebony for the Swiss-style pegs, fingerboard, and end pin plug alongside an aged maple Aubert bridge. Due to the tonewoods, varnish, and traditional build methods used, the tone should continue to improve over time as the wood ages and breathes. The outfit has been professionally setup with Opal Titan strings (C/G - tungsten with rope steel core - D/A - Alloy on steel core) to give the cello an excellent voice and playability right out of the box. Also included is an FPS Deluxe Cello Bag, and an Articul II bow.
Gliga instruments make a great choice for a first instrument or as a fine upgrade from a cheaper instrument, and they come highly recommended by teachers. The main differences (from good to best) between the Gliga III, II, I, and Vasile are the experience of the maker, the grain tightness and flaming of the woods, and the amount of time and precision invested into the graduation of the plate thickness for better projection tonal quality.
