The Suite by Cassado for solo cello (1926) is in the key of D. Beginning soulfully in D minor, by the last movement this has become a joyful and energetic D major. This key is very suitable for the cello, as it allows the top two strings, A and D, to be exploited fully as part of the wide range of techniques available on the cello, in particular those that use the many possibilities of the open strings.
It really depends on what you're preference is, what you're playing, and where you're playing. If you prefer the electric cello, go ahead. If you like the regular wooden cello, it's fine. If you're playing rock, I suggest the electric cello. If you play more classy-jazzy style, go with the regular cello. If you are playing solo on stage, go with what you prefer. If you are in an orchestra, go with the original cello.
