What is the best way to learn a three quarter cello?
A three quarter cello is no different than a regular cello other than it's size. The 3 quarter cello is smaller and suitable for younger players, but it makes the exact same pitches and works exactly the same way. You want to learn to play the cello, and the best way to do it is either in a school setting or in a private lesson. I learned the cello in a combination of the two, and I am now one of the top players in my school. I obviously didn't try to learn the cello myself without a teacher, so you're going to need another answer for that. Hope you have fun learning to play the cello!

Who made the modern cello?
Well, Andrea Amati is thought to have crafted the first example of a cello-shaped bass viol, and whether it was known as a violoncello or not is questionable. He made "The King" cello in the 16th century, and although it has been modified (made smaller in this case), the original cello is thought of to be the modern model of the baroque cello: wide. There were many viol-instruments during the quattrocento and the renaissance as a whole, but none approached the "modern-cello-look" of the Amati. Amati's sons and pupils went on to eventually teach Antonio Stradivari, the famed 18th century luthier. Sources: 15 year old music history knowledge/ (the internet)
