  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.

  Cello soloist & chamber musician - Lisboa, Portugal

  There have been many pieces of research on acoustic improvement on cello spikes. I tried almost all of them, but none convinced me. However, the FASTER Artica 600 cello endpin makes a real difference!

  Sound becomes free and achieves a large projection in the concert hall.

• Nicolas Hartmann

  Principal cellist - Orquestre National de Lyon. France

  I enjoy very much playing my cello with my new FASTER Artica 600 Titanium endpin. The instrument sounds better. The projection is more efficient, and the sound is more rounded, deep, and rich in harmonics.

  I am so happy!

• Gabriele Geminiani

  Principal cellist - Orchestra Santa Cecilia. Roma, Italy

  José María Lozano, and I am incredibly satisfied with the results. From the very first moment, I have noticed a massive improvement in my violoncello.

  I recommend this endpin to all cellists for being such a valuable invention.

• Scott Dickinson

  Viola soloist, chamber musician and principal violist of the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra - Scotland

  Dear José María, thank you so much again for helping me and my viola with the FASTER Titanium. I am so happy!

  Many people have noticed an improvement in my viola, so a very big thank you. I have told many people about you and will continue to do this!

  Thank you again and all very best wishes.

  Concertmaster - Orchestra Arena di Verona. Verona - Italy

  The FASTER Silver has increased the sound and the harmonics in my violin, thus getting a quicker response and making it easier to play. Some fellow musicians ask me whether I had a new violin!

  I am very much satisfied with the results and recommend it to all violinists.

  Thank you for your valuable help in making my violin even more beautiful!

  The FASTER Artica endpins improve the sound enormously, and also the instrument’s response. Its reaction is more pleasant, and an improvement in the string resonance is noticeable both in the bow and the left hand.

  In my case and my instrument, it considerably increases the sound value. It is not only a matter of power and brightness but also of sound quality.

  I have tried two endpins, the Artica Titanium and the Artica Silver. With the titanium model, the sound gets more rounded, and the range of harmonics is much better than with a regular endpin. The feeling with the silver model is similar, although, in my opinion, the sound quality is much better, being much more round and refined.
