Strong match

Who this is for

  • Playing on hardwood, tile, or polished stage floors
  • Cellists who move between practice rooms with different flooring
  • Bassists needing a stop that handles a heavier instrument

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Players who only sit on carpet, where the endpin already grips
  • Anyone wanting an adjustable strap that ties to the chair leg
  • Violin or viola players — there is no endpin to anchor

What matters in use

The specifications, translated

Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.

Detail 01

Wooden construction

Rigid and long-wearing compared to rubber pucks, which compress and tear out around the endpin socket over time.

Detail 02

Round shape

Single fixed position for the endpin. No sliding adjustment for pin distance the way a strap or board offers.

Detail 03

Rated for cello and double bass

Built to take bass weight and endpin diameter, so it will not split under a heavier instrument.

Detail 04

Anchor, not a strap

Sits loose on the floor rather than tethering to the chair, so it can drift if bumped mid-piece.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01Instrument, endpin, bow, and chair are not included
  2. 02Loose anchors can slide on very slick floors — check grip before performing
  3. 03Confirm your endpin tip fits the socket; some sharp pins seat poorly

Product questions

Before you decide

Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.

01Do I need one if I play on carpet?

Usually not. Carpet grips the endpin on its own. An anchor matters on hardwood, tile, laminate, and stage floors where the pin slips out from under you.

02Will it work for both cello and double bass?

Yes, it is made for both. The bass is heavier and its endpin sits at a different angle, so check that the pin seats securely before leaning into it.

03Does it damage the floor?

It sits between the endpin and the floor, which is the point — it takes the pressure instead of the finish. Grit trapped underneath can still scuff.

04Anchor or endpin strap?

A strap ties to the chair leg and cannot drift. This anchor is quicker to set up and does not depend on the chair, but it can be kicked out of place.
