Overview
The Bender Cello Endpin with Titanium Shaft and 25mm Plug (EP3371) offers an advanced design for cellists seeking improved sound transmission and mechanical reliability. Precision-engineered with a 25mm finely threaded plug, this endpin ensures optimal contact when used with a properly reamed 1:17 tapered hole, resulting in better coupling between the instrument and the endpin while reducing energy loss.
Its collet nut design replaces the traditional thumbscrew mechanism, distributing clamping pressure evenly along the shaft's perimeter. This prevents stress fractures, particularly common in carbon shafts, and increases the endpin's longevity. The titanium shaft is available in either a lightweight hollow or a sturdier solid format, each offering distinct tonal nuances. The hollow shaft enhances upper harmonics and responsiveness, while the solid shaft provides added stability—ideal for extended positions.
Whether for professional performance or quick testing in a retail setting, this endpin delivers acoustic clarity and effortless usability.
