    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.

  • 10 mm Solid Carbon Fiber Endpin (NHM)

    10 mm Solid Carbon Fiber Endpin (NHM)

    New Harmony Music’s solid 10 mm CF endpin  has an extremely sharp heat-hardened steel tip which can be resharpened.   If you don’t have calipers to measure the diameter of your current endpin, you can measure around the circumference.  If it’s 1.25″ you have a 10 mm endpin.  Each endpin is sold with a (replaceable)  plastic-lined rubber cap.  While the standard endpin length is 20″, some cellists are finding that more endpin resonating inside their cello improves the sound.  Results always vary, so we can’t tell you what will happen, only that we can give you the opportunity to try and find out.
    20″ endpin  $63.00
    24″ endpin  $76.00
    28″ endpin  $84.00
