Her cutie mark is a treble clef which is used more for violins. Cello and bass instruments use a bass clef. Thet probably chose the treble clef because most peole recognise it as a musical type notation. Most don't recognise what a bass clef is.

It has alsu been mentioned that she can't possibly hold the bow the way she does with her fetlock. She can't use magic and she doesn't have fingers. It's about the only way she can hold it.

My headcannon is that she got the treble clef because she started with a violin when she was a filly but moved up to a cello later on.
