Eastman VC402S Superior Intermediate 4/4 Cello, Ivan Dunov - antiqued spirit varnish, Romanian Spruce Top and Maple Back and Sides

The Eastman Ivan Dunov Superior VC402 Cello

Old-world craftsmanship and materials come together in our Ivan Dunov instruments. Crafted from Carpathian tonewoods, hand varnished in our workshop in Beijing, China. These instruments provide excellent sound and playability.

Ivan Dunov Superior model 402 instruments are similar to the Ivan Dunov model 401 line, but with the addition of more highly select tonewoods and special detailed craftsmanship.

Select Romanian Spruce Top

A hand-carved spruce top made from higher-grade Romanian tonewood provides rich resonance, warmth, and strong projection.

Romanian Maple Back & Ribs

Carefully selected maple enhances depth, clarity, and tonal balance, contributing to a focused and expressive sound.

Highly Select Carpathian Tonewoods

Upgraded, well-chosen tonewoods elevate the instrument’s overall tonal complexity and responsiveness compared to standard step-up models.

Antiqued Spirit Varnish Finish

A hand-applied varnish gives a classic, aged appearance while allowing the wood to vibrate freely for optimal sound production.

Ebony Fingerboard

A durable ebony fingerboard ensures smooth playability and long-term reliability for advancing technique.

Ebony Fittings with Wittner Tailpiece

High-quality ebony fittings paired with a Wittner tailpiece provide stable tuning, durability, and ease of adjustment.

Genuine Hand-Inlaid Purfling

Traditional purfling reinforces the instrument’s edges while adding refined, handcrafted visual detail.

Despiau “1 Tree” Bridge

A quality French bridge improves vibration transfer, tonal balance, and responsiveness across all strings.
