Developed by Sarah West (Juilliard-trained cellist/teacher) after extensive material testing; tough, tear-resistant backing. Hand-made in Minnesota by a team of musicians.
How it works
A specially formulated backing grips most smooth floors to stop sliding, yet releases cleanly so you can reposition. The centre “honeycomb” accepts sharpened tips in multiple micro-positions; rubber tips sit securely on top.
- Compact — fits easily in most cases.
- Works with cellos and most double basses.
- Top: rigid face; Backing: high-grip “rubbery” layer.
- Dust-resistant: rinse under water if dusty to restore grip.

SmartStop — customer reviews
“I love the product, it does exactly what I was hoping for. I'm tired of having to adjust my endping stop strap everytime I sit in a different chair to practice and my other puck endpin stop just slides around and soon as I start playing. The SmartStop clings to the floor as if were glued there and I can comfortably play my cello or double bass with worrying about the endpin sliding away from me. ”
“I'm a bassist. It works perfectly. As I practice at home on a wood floor the bass does not slide at all. I play standing up. In thumb position I lean the instrument back to me quite a bit. The bass stands securely on the floor without moving. There's a rubber tip on the end pin that is 1 1/4 in. diameter. The end pin with the tip fits perfectly in the SmartStop. I'm going to get one or two more to have as extras. It's a very good and well designed product.”
“Great stop, fast service.”
“Best cello stops ever! They are very stable and stay where you put them.”
“Love the cello stop , stays in place fantastic ! And looks great too !”
“It has never moved while playing and so far I’ve used it on wood floors, tile, and vinyl flooring.”
“I found SmartStop to stay put on my hard wood floor better than the other stops I’ve used.”
“I’ve been struggling with playing on a tile floor. Nothing I’ve tried worked once I started playing- until my instructor told me about this stop. I’m in love. The craftsmanship is beautiful and even better, it works so so so well. Thank you!”
“I love the assurance it gives me that the instrument will stay put when I’m playing.”
“Love it!”
“Best rock stop we’ve used!”
“I love how sparkly & glittery it is! And yet, it's functional; there are not many things that are soo beautiful and also serve a purpose.”
