A GEWA e-cello designed by the product office: the Novita philosophy
The Novita 3.0 follows a "functional" approach to the e-cello: preserving the essentials of a traditional cello (proportions and handling) while integrating modern solutions adapted to amplified playing. Its design and development are credited to Thomas Böhme, GEWA product manager in Adorf, aiming for a balance between understated aesthetics, stability, and practicality. The carbon frame and selection of recognized components (Wittner, dedicated bridge) position this model as a serious instrument for practicing, recording, and performing on stage.
Who is the Novita 3.0 for?
This e-cello is intended for the intermediate to advanced cellist seeking a reliable instrument for plugged-in playing, quieter rehearsals, and versatile contexts: studio, stage, rehearsal room, home studio. It is also suitable for musicians looking for versatility (classical, contemporary music, pop, electro-acoustic, film music), thanks to the direct response of a piezo system and the possibility to add an external source via Aux-in. If you come from an acoustic cello, the format close to a traditional instrument facilitates the transition.
Sound
The Novita 3.0 is based on a piezo system mounted directly on the bridge, which promotes precise attack, clear articulation reading, and a defined dynamic with the bow. The GEWA pickup, specially developed for this model, aims for a reproduction focused on definition and projection once amplified, while limiting constraints related to acoustic volume. The option to position the piezo on the left or right side of the bridge allows adaptation to your playing setup and feel. The stated tonewoods (linden body, maple back, solid maple neck) contribute to balanced and stable behavior, while the carbon frame enhances consistency and durability during transport or environmental changes.
Recommended compatible accessories
The Novita 3.0 is announced compatible with all GEWA cases and gig bags. To secure your travels, prioritize a GEWA gig bag or case in the cello format that suits your needs (light transport or reinforced protection).
