    FASTER, what a great invention!

    The first thing I noticed is how much faster the instrument’s sound opens. And above all, the ease in the response!

    Bravo, maestro!

    All beautifully crafted models of the FASTER Artica cello endpin sound fabulous. They are just awesome!

    All of them sound undoubtedly different, but if they have one thing in common, and I think they do, is that they make the sound more clean and round, bright and projective.

    I have installed the FASTER Silver in my Vuillaume violin. The sound is simply amazing, very free, with plenty of harmonics, and incredible tone quality.

    I have extensively tried the FASTER Silver in my G. A. Rocca violin with different pieces of music, and various acoustics, and I feel happy to let you know that it did improve the sound of my violin!

    Not only is it more powerful, but also more rounded, and it did improve a lot the clarity of the sound.

    Besides, the possibility of closing the hole with the small plastic cap gives me the option to opting for a more compact sound if needed without losing all the harmonics-related benefits that the silver button adds.

    Thank you very much. You did a fantastic job!

    I am impressed with the result after installing the FASTER Titanium in my Stefano Scarampella violin. The change has surprised me because I did not think it would be so evident. I have to admit that in the beginning, I had my doubts as to the outcome. The sound production is now quicker, and the medium-low range has improved so much! Previously, my violin had a very powerful E-string, which made sound balance at stake. I tried various sound adjustments, but the result was never successful. Ever since I installed the FASTER Titanium, the violin’s sound production is better. It has gained harmonic richness, which has turned sound production smoother and sweeter.

    Thank you very much! Love,

    When someone shows you FASTER, a mix of surprise and skepticism over something so small and simple-looking overwhelms you. Once installed in the violin, you cannot go backward and do without it. Without hesitation, FASTER is the most ground-breaking invention, and also the one that has most contributed in terms of sound to string instruments in the last three hundred years.

    Thank you very much for inventing FASTER Silver. It has given my violin a new life!

  • Enrico Balboni

    Concertmaster - Orchestra del Teatro La Fenice di Venezia. Italy

    I had heard good reviews from fellow musicians who had installed FASTER in their instruments, so I decided to do the same in my Stefano Scarampella violin.

    With FASTER Silver, the instrument has immediately responded with much effortless sound production and an increase in harmonics and brightness. The sound is now warmer and complete, to such an extent that I decided to install another one in my Roberto Collini viola, obtaining a more than satisfactory response.

    I wholeheartedly thank maestro José María Lozano for this fantastic opportunity, and without reservations recommend FASTER to all those seeking to improve the quality of their instruments.
