Well Nathan, I thought about those end pins, but lately I think I prefer my bass more vertical. In the end I don't think having the bass on more of an angle really helped my bowing, although bouncing was easier. I know what you mean about the pizz being easier on a vertical bass too. Still, I'd love to give one of these end pins a go!
