This is a cello. It might look like a violin but it doesn't have a chin rest, but it has a rock stop. For those of you who don't know what a rock stop is, it's the thing that hangs down at the bottom of the cello. It's expendable, and a friend of mine uses a material on the rock stop to make it sticky so that the cello doesn't constantly slide out of position. I'm hoping to get one for this Christmas because I play violin. Violins tackle the high notes, and it would be great to play some low notes, although I found my birthday present in the laundry room when my mom told me to make sure that there was nothing in the water basin and sure enough, that's where it was. It was an electric 5-string violin/viola:
It was still in the box, but the SHTAR logo gave it away, and also, the box said "FRAGILE" and that showed that it was either an electric violin, (most likely) or a pick-up for the amp. Pardon the four strings, but I couldn't find any red 5-string violin/violas. Here's a D major scale for cello I found when I was surfing the internet, or five:

Benny, by the time you grow up, I expect that you'll learn to play every instrument in the orchestra.
