I'm not familiar with which endpins Kolstein is putting in their basses, so it's hard to do any kind of diagnosis without actually seeing it. Since you initially said that the endpin "has started to become very difficult", I assume that means that this condition isn't something that has been a problems since the bass was new. Is there anything else you can think of that may have changed recently? Have you used a wheel with this bass? Has the endpin socket ever gotten wet? (I'm grasping for straws!)
