Wittner Ultra Tailpiece

Wittner Ultra Tailpiece

$32.00

Wittner composite tailpiece has integrated fine tuners and comes with a tail cord. Changing strings is easy because the parts you need to thread are on the front of the tailpiece.  An excellent replacement for old ebony tailpieces with bulky add-on fine tuners.  Tailpiece for 7/8 and 4/4 size cellos is 235 mm in length.  Fractional sizes can be ordered.

  • 8 mm Solid Carbon Fiber Endpin NHM

    8 mm Solid Carbon Fiber Endpin NHM

    New Harmony’s 8mm carbon fiber endpin is 20″ long, weighs ~ 42 grams with a rubber cap that weighs 6 grams.  It is a one-for-one replacement for most solid metal endpins.  If you don’t have calipers to measure diameter of your existing endpin, measure around the circumference of the rod.  If it’s 1″, the diameter is 8mm.    The tip is heat-hardened steel that can be sharpened, though it maintains its original point for a long time.  Some players report some flex compared to solid metal rods, but this varies with player movement (emoting) as well as how close you are to full extension.  *Add $10 for the model with a steel carbide tip

  • ConCarbo Harp Style

    ConCarbo Harp Style

    This Harp style is pictured in glossy twill carbon fiber and does not have fine tuners.  The length is 230 mm on the long side and 218 mm on the short side, and the proportions seem to offer more tonal options to a cello when tweaking its setup.  A kevlar tail cord is included, and the tailpiece is also available in black matte or glossy finish.  

    This style can be ordered with fine tuners installed.   They are specifically drilled for the Titanium hook style, or the black mini-lever style.  See their separate entries on our site.

  • ConCarbo CF tailpiece with mini levers

    ConCarbo CF tailpiece with mini levers

    Another ConCarbo tailpiece option for cellists without Pegheds or other geared pegs is this “twill” French style model with mini levers.  The gallery photos show the back and side view of the tailpiece so you can appreciate how the string loads from the back for a clean look on the front, with less weight.  Since all our cellos have Pegheds, we don’t use this model here at the shop but can order it if it doesn’t happen to be in stock when you inquire.  Options for the tailpiece itself include black matte or shiny in addition to the “twill.”    We can special order this for you.

    Composite Fitting for 8 mm endpin (NHM)

    This New Harmony Music endpin fitting is composite with stainless steel and can be used with your existing 8mm endpin, or you can purchase one of our options.   Keep in mind there are tolerances so a misfit (while rare) is possible.  You will need to know the diameter of the hole in your cello from the current fitting so you can choose either the Small 23.5 mm, Medium 25.5 mm, or Large 27.5 mm.   There is no angled bore option for an 8mm endpin.
