Solo Shoulder Rest for 4/4 Violin

Goed

Gayet başarılı rahat çok memnun kaldım

I had a Kun Collapsible 4/4 shoulder rest for decades which was very comfortable, adjustable, and light. The Kun Solo Shoulder Rest out engineers the Kun Collapsible, wish I’d upgraded earlier. It is more comfortable because it’s built strong by creating an arced triangle structure that rests on the player with inward pointing feet for stability making it stick to the instrument even when not in playing position, it adds surface area to pad area, the pad is also soft but firm and the slotted pattern greatly improves grip, no sliding here. It’s adjustable both when attached and when collapsed for storage, like the Kun Collapsible the feet turn 90 degrees from storage position to playing position but improves hinge mechanism by simplifying it and adding lateral mass so that feet don’t giggle. The inward pointing feet is a genius innovation, it allows rubber feet to grip the instrument firmly but gently and the feet slide on a tabbed track removing the need to add mass by having two removable screws like in the Kun Collapsible or other competing shoulder rests. The feet have a large vertical range to fit people with tall or short neckline. It’s light to the advantage of the player, it’s plastic construction is correct because it doesn’t add unnecessary mass and accomplishes the purpose of allowing the instrument to project without dampening the bottom plate of the violin. Some may not find the plastic construction attractive, but it’s important because violins are wood instruments. Having things like wood or metal as the main construction material for a shoulder rest may look nice but adds risk of damage to the instrument because they’re hard materials. The Kun Solo is carefully designed from the beveled edges, replaceable/extendable rubber feet, and slanted surface that connects feet to shoulder pad. Even the little tabs to slide the feet are rounded and arced as precautionary foresight to allow them to bend in case the player accidentally installs them too close to the instrument so that pressure is applied on them with the bottom plate, which you should be careful not to do as described in instructions (this is something you should not allow to happen on any shoulder rest, for any shoulder rest with feet only the feet should contact the violin and allow the bottom plate to vibrate). In conclusion, this is a professional shoulder rest, yet it’s accessible at it’s price. I am certainly impressed at the attention to detail. It’s like looking at the intricate construction of a violin, but for a shoulder rest, much experience has gone into its design. Good work Kun, keep it up!

弾くときに知らないうちに歯を噛みしめる癖があり、小臼歯が痛むのを気にしていた自分にはちょうどよかった。 以前に使っていた肩当ては低くて顎で押さえ込む必要があった。これはより高さがあり、そのようにすることはなく、噛み締めグセを軽減できる。良いものに出会った。 細かくアーム幅を調整できるのでとても良く肩にフィットした。

Muy bueno si recomiendo es súper cómodo, es similar a la altura de la Magic pad. Lo malo que la caja venía un poco maltratada pero el cojín llegó en excelentes condiciones
