12tone

12tone Endpins and Endpin mounts are the culmination of years of research by the Research Collective in dialog with leading luthiers from around the world. 12tone evolved to fill a need for high-performance endpin mounts that meet the acoustical and technical requirements of the world’s most exacting cellists and bassists. Our trademark “Vector Mount” accomplishes exceptional non-slip grip and only requires minimal thumbscrew force via the vector physics of an angled endpin clamping slug.

12tone also offers ultra-light collet mounts for bass players who prefer wooden endpins, our “RobPin” line of adjustable angle endpins (John’s favorite!), and our flagship “Resonator Vented” Endpins which channel acoustical energy from the bridge through vent holes near the endpin tip.

In addition to our premium 12 mm diameter endpins for cello and bass, 12tone has endpin and mount models ranging from 10 mm through 16 mm in diameter. For more information, please visit 12tone.org
