The build quality of the endpin itself is fantastic, it enhances the sound of my cello better than the carbon endpin from Bois d'Harmonie (B&H), which I've been using for years. My cello now has edgier articulations and more grounded bass, without feeling heavy on the bow. The only thing I miss from the previous endpin is the tip. The tip from B&H carbon endpin is made of tungsten carbide and practically never dulls. This tip from Otto Musica dulls rather easily and does not have the silver-grey colour of titanium. Therefore I assume it's made of stainless steel. Although this tip is replaceable, a dulled tip is the nightmare of all cellists. It's really a shame that the only let down of such a great product is the tip.

Pros - incredibly stiff, it doesn't wobble like carbon fiber endpin, With gut strings it adds more overtones compared to carbon, the sound is more edgy, projects more.
The tip is very sharp.
Cons - it's quite heavy compared to carbon
With steel strings the sound is too metalic

L'embout caoutchouc qu'on voit sur la photo est trompeur...on imagine qu'il va suffire de l'enlever pour avoir une pique bien pointue. Pas du tout ! Il se dévisse ! laissant une pique inutilisable sans lui ! Bien sûr, comme toujours, ce petit morceau de caoutchouc n'est pas suffisant pour éviter de glisser....dommage car la fabrication est bonne.
The rubber tip that we see in the photo is misleading...we imagine that it will be enough to remove it to have a very sharp spike. No way ! It unscrews! leaving a pike unusable without it! Of course, as always, this little piece of rubber is not enough to prevent slipping... too bad because the manufacturing is good.
