Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

A viola shoulder rest sized for 15-inch and larger violas. For players who need a rest matched to a full-size viola body rather than a violin one.

Strong match

Who this is for

  • Adult violists on 15 in. or larger instruments
  • Players switching from a violin rest that no longer spans
  • Anyone needing a dedicated rest per instrument in a case

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Violinists — the span is cut for wider viola bouts
  • Violists on 14 in. or smaller intermediate sizes
  • Players who prefer a sponge or pad against the body

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.

Detail 01

Viola 15 in. and up

Sized to the wider lower bout of a full-size viola, so the feet clear the edges properly.

Detail 02

Shoulder rest, not part of the instrument

It clamps on and comes off. Nothing about it changes the viola's setup or sound production.

Detail 03

Wolf

Wolf sizes and names rests by instrument and model line, so match the line to the instrument you actually play.

Detail 04

$60

Mid-tier for a rest. You are paying above the basic clip-on category, below professional custom fittings.

Detail 05

Size stated as a minimum

Fits 15 in. and larger. Measure your viola's body length, not the total length including the scroll.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01Measure body length from the top edge to the bottom edge before ordering
  2. 02Nothing else is included — no case, cloth, or spare parts
  3. 03Rests can rub varnish over time; wipe the contact points regularly

Product questions

Before you decide

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

01Will this fit my violin?

No. It is cut for violas 15 in. and larger. A violin's lower bout is narrower, so the rest will not seat correctly. Use a violin-specific model.

02How do I know my viola size?

Measure the body only — the back of the instrument from the top edge to the bottom edge, ignoring the neck and scroll. Violas are sized in inches by that number.

03Does it come with anything else?

No. You get the shoulder rest itself.

04Can I leave it on in the case?

Most cases do not have clearance for a rest left attached. Plan to remove it and store it in the accessory compartment.
