Description

The Bonmusica violin shoulder rest. Pliable metal base allows for a high degree of custom fit.

This rest can be customised to a very high level and is ideal for players who feel their instrument can slip down, especially in the higher playing positions.

The hook can be moved to provide a good anchorage at the prefered playing position. Height and tilt in 2 planes combined with a bendable plate allow an almost infinite range and will enable the vast majority of players to achieve a comfortable playing experience.

Very comfortable shoulder rest

Pros: This holds the violin more securely and comfortably than any other shoulder rest I have tried and allows my left arm to be relaxed. It can be adjusted to fit, and the extra width as well as the hook over the shoulder both seem to help keep it secure.

Cons: Doesn't fit in the violin case and looks a bit cumbersome (but you don't notice that when you're using it!)

Well made, easily adjustable, does the job !

Pros: Excellent shoulder rest... Supports the fiddle really well on my shoulder, preventing the tendency for it to slip forwards. Easily adjustable.

Cons: A bit expensive for what it is, but there is nothing else like it on the market

Bonmusica shoulder rest

Pros: Having had a shoulder operation a few years ago I was finding it difficult to hold my violin for more than a few minutes. The new rest takes all the strain and tension away.

Cons: The rest was rather tight on my instrument and the instructions to alter it are rather sketchy and difficult to follow.
