Bonmusica Shoulder Rest for 1/8 Violin

The support is adjustable in many ways. Due to the flexibility and the secure hold, you can absolutely devote yourself to other things like bow technique and the left hand. However, it took about 2 weeks to get used to and I feel that other muscle groups are used in the upper arm and forearm (left hand). However, I see this as positive, as the energy for holding the violin is eliminated. Also had to try several chin rests, as they are equally responsible for the optimal fit of the violin. The support has revolutionized my technique in terms of speed, left and right. Since the violin is now very well positioned, I can do things that were not possible before. Nevertheless, I still play with my Kun prop from time to time, because certain techniques in swing as well as in blues require a change of the violin position, especially when it comes to percussion. This is not possible with this prop, as it can be adjusted for a precise fit. Of course you can adjust the bowing technique needed, it just takes some time. The best prop I have ever had. More than 5 stars.

A good and flexible shoulder support that bends easily to follow the curvature of the shoulder and back. It provides good support.

Once you have adjusted the shoulder rest correctly, it sits perfectly and does not press. The violin can be held without much effort from the chin. My daughter loves them and the violin teacher finds them also top!

One thing in advance: It is difficult to find the perfect position for the shoulder support. You have a lot of options and just have to try a little bit every day....
But, you immediately notice a difference to the conventional supports and the playing feeling changes to the positive. Really great!
I can recommend it to everyone!

The shoulder support is ingenious. It adapts to the shoulder.
