NS Design CEPS Cello Endpin Stand

I decided to purchase this endpin stand because the stock tripod was cheaply made, and was so unstable I couldn't apply any vibrato wihout it all shaking. I feel that the price for this item is a bit too much for what it is, but the supports all work well, the cello still feels a bit different from an acoustic but it is much more like it now. The cello is screwed to the stand at an angle, so it is tilted to the right when you play by a few degrees which could bother some players. The wings for the knees can collapse, but are a little shorter when extended than the sides of an acoustic. The spike itself doesn't have a point in the end but a rubber tip, that isn't supposed to be removed.
Overall the endpin stand works well, is made well but is too expensive, which is why I gave it 4 stars instead of 5.
