Cello Bridges

The sound of your cello depends greatly on the bridge it's equipped with. The reason is because the instrument's strings produce very faint sound on their own - hence, it's the bridge's job to amplify the string vibrations by transferring them to a bigger surface area. Thankfully, finding a cello bridge made from high quality wood and crafted with careful precision is easy if you stick to this catalog. In fact, companies like The String Center and Glaesel have built strong reputations for their cello bridges, and each of them, along with many others, have models available on this page.

While there are many professional-level cello bridges here, newcomers to the instrument shouldn't stress over spending too much on a new one; your best bet is to go with a bridge that's designed specifically with your skill level in mind.
