I just got my beginner cello at The Guitar Store in Taman Segar, Cheras for RM2000. It's not the first store I visited as the stores I previously visited needs at least RM2500 for a student cello. The price comes with the cello, beginner bow, rosin, and soft cello case. The cello is beautiful, sound wise it's acceptable for a beginner cello.

If you demand a better sound in the future, just upgrade the strings and/or buy a better bow. I got my new strings and bow at MyStringMaster Taman Desa. The shopkeeper is friendly and honest, I learnt a lot about cello accessories from him. If you wish to rent a cello without committing to buy it first you can also do it at MyStringMaster. They have beginner to intermediate cellos for rental.

Hope this helps.
