Needs description

Real-life context

The cello is a fairly large intrument sometimes compared to the violin as its giant self. The strings of the cello have much lower notes than the violin and is the second lowest in the common string intrument category next to the bass. It is played using a bow made from stury materials such as wood or metal, and is most commonly using horsehair to get the sound from the strings. Sinew can replace it in the Cantr world though. The bow is used by rubbing it against the strings of the cello. The strings are wires made from some sort of metal or sturdy material wrapped around itself. Cellos produce a good sound by having a hollow inside with certain holes where the sound is meant to come from.
