    Dear José María, I wish to share with you the satisfaction I feel to play my Mario Capicchioni viola with the FASTER Titanium on it.

    The sound, which was already good before, has utterly improved in quality and power, with many more harmonics. The sound of the instrument has gained bright and timbre sweetness, thanks to the sound range amplitude.

    I appreciate your great work very much. My most sincere congratulations!

    With affection and admiration.

    The FASTER Artica Titanium Cello Endpin, designed and constructed by José María Lozano, has utterly outstanding features.

    My first impression was the ease of sound production (strings vibrate unrestrainedly), and the spectacular sound quality. That is because of a tangible increase in harmonics produced by the cello, which undoubtedly gains volume and brightness in its sound, both in low and high ranges.

    Never before had I come across an endpin that could improve the sound parameters of an instrument.

    May my testimonial persuade other cellists to acquire one of these magical endpins. I herein thank maestro luthier Lozano, who passionate towards and skillful with nowadays technology, contributes to improving the sound of instruments existing for over three centuries, proving that the past and the future can work in harmony.

    Maestro José María Lozano has got to revolutionize sound with his innovating FASTER system of endpins and stoppers, not just by boosting it up, but also by improving its quality, reaching levels of excellence.

    I was introduced to the FASTER world by Giovanni Fabris, the concertmaster of our orchestra. I must say that, as soon as we fitted it to the instrument, I noticed an immediate change. The A string became sweeter, and the C string had a fuller sound. The instrument’s response is generally better in all positions.

    However, the FASTER Titanium makes a real difference when you want to play piano and pianissimo because the strings, especially the low ones, go into vibration much easier. All my fellow players who have tried it are just as happy.

    Thank you very much for this invention.

    Bravo, José María! I never thought that the FASTER Artica 600 Titanium cello endpin could change, free, and project the sound of a cello to such a large extent.

    You made it! Congratulations!

  • Antonio Torres

    Double bass professor - Córdoba, Spain

    It is an outstanding contribution to the world of the double bass. After having tried the FASTER endpins and BELTON stoppers by José María Lozano in various concert halls and auditoriums, the summing-up cannot be better.

    The sound quality improves by optimizing the harmonics as well as their projection. My feeling is that of more comfort at playing, which strengthens my self-confidence.

    Congratulations!

    Artica 500 Titanium cello endpin by maestro José María Lozano has increased the resonance and harmonics in my double bass. The sound spreads itself more naturally, and playing feels easier. Bravo!
