Check your local music store. They might have something,
and they might be able to make you a deal. They also might have used cellos that are still really nice that would be available at a lower price.

*Ask your orchestra teacher if he/she knows of anyone selling a cello or something; music teachers are a GREAT source for instrument-buying help. Be sure to let them know about your search. That's probably going to be your best bet....*

You can find cheap cellos on eBay, but if you buy from there you're going to get what you paid for (eBay instruments are pretty much JUNK!). DON'T buy from there if you want something that will sound good and last you.

Shar Music www.sharmusic.com has cellos, and other reliable places do, too.... Most places have less-expensive student models you could check out. Also with www.sharmusic.com there is free shipping through Oct. 31 plus you don't have to pay tax. I think I read that it DOES include big things like cellos but I might not be remembering right...

Good luck!

um.
southwest has pretty good instruments. so does shar

but as for the Bio Rhythms, i have Meyer's email.
its rmeyer@tcusd.net
try emailing and see what he wants us to do.
i'm gonna get my teacher to do that.
