What are the classical guitar string ends called where it is a washer just like regular strings?

Question

There was an Ad once in a guitar magazine I saw that had these lil things you could put on nylon strings so you could string it like a regular acoustic guitar, instead of having to tie it to the bridge and all that. Where can I find those? What are they called?!

Answer 1

Hi

The end is called the ball end

Answer 2

If you go to a music store, tell them you need nylon ball end strings. Or if you want to buy on line, check out this:

I've never tried these strings, so I'm not recommending them, just wanted to give you a reference.
