What matters in use

The specifications, translated

Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.

Resonans 1/2 Violin Shoulder Rest Medium construction detail

Detail 01

1/2 size

The width matches a 1/2 violin's lower bout. On a larger violin the feet will not reach the edges.

Detail 02

Medium height

The middle of three height options. Suits an average neck length; tall players usually want more lift.

Detail 03

Shoulder rest

Clamps to the violin's lower bout and bridges the gap to your collarbone, so you are not gripping with your chin.

Detail 04

$20

Entry-level pricing. Expect functional plastic and rubber rather than adjustable hardware or premium padding.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01Height is fixed at Medium, so try it before committing if the student is tall
  2. 02Chin rest is not included and is a separate fitting question
  3. 03Rubber feet can mark varnish if left clamped on for long storage

Product questions

Before you decide

Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.

01Will it fit a 3/4 violin?

No. This one is made for 1/2 size. A 3/4 body is wider and the rest will not grip the edges properly.

02Medium or low for a small child?

Smaller players with short necks usually do better on the lower height. Medium suits an average build.

03Does it stay on in the case?

Most 1/2 cases are tight. Take the rest off before closing the lid to avoid pressure on the top.

04Is it comfortable enough for daily practice?

It does the basic job of holding the violin steady. Players practicing hours a day usually upgrade to a padded, adjustable rest.
