This past weekend I bareley got through a gig because of a recurring problem that I developed with my double bass' endpin. Basically, I had to do a few "modifications" for my endpin to work, otherwise, I wouldn't be able to use my double bass. Anyway, I got through the gig without damaging my bass and decided to replace my endpin.
When taking my bass in for repair at Heinl's, I decided to take the plunge and invest in a better endpin than just installing one that was of equal quality of the one that was broken. I'm not sure why, but it seems that I felt a little bit more comfortable with my bass. Whether it was the new endpin or if it was psychological, I'm happier with this purchase. At the very least, my endpin won't fall out while I'm playing.
