  • Key Pegs, also known as “Posture Pegs” or “Krovoza Pegs“, have helped hundreds of cellists worldwide to greatly reduce tension and fatigue while playing. The removal of the heads from the C and G pegs allows the cello to rest in a more close and nature position against the player.The Key Peg is in two pieces, the peg shaft and the key tool. The shaft houses a sleeve that is 2 cm long, into which the square key tool fits. The grip of the key tool is larger than the grip of most normal pegs allowing greater leverage and ease of adjustment.
  • In answer to recent strict airline carry-on regulations, BAM has designed the “Overhead Hightech Violin Case“. It is extremely compact and is made using BAM’s patented Hightech material which provides ultimate protection with minimal weight (2.3 lbs). The case only carries a single violin; a bow can easily be carried in a small separate case or tube.
  • Artino has designed unique sound enhancing endpin stops and shoulder rests. We have tested these items and find that they do indeed have a positive effect for many instruments. The shoulder rests tend to make violins have a darker sound while the endpin stops seem to add color to the cello sound. The best thing to do is come into the showroom to assess the products with your own instrument
