I recently bought a Yamaha SV250 electric violin. While it seems flimsy on it's own, it really isn't. It's just made to have a bit of give & take, making it more ergonomic, & light weight. It seems a little thin though.I saw a video review, where someone added a similar item to theirs & thought, that, that would be a great addition, so, I took the plunge & ordered me one of these.Interestingly, it seems like it would make the overall bulk of the violin too much, but... indeed, it makes it just right (for me)It's adjustable, so, you can get a variety of angles, but, in my opinion, a little adjustment goes a long way, & if you adjust it in the wrong direction (for you), you'll notice it right off.I have it as tight as it will go, but, loosened a little on the chest side. Only like ¼", but, the ¼" makes a nice difference.Overall, it takes away the flimsy feel of the thin rails of the SV250. so, the violin feels more robust. They are comfortable, a lot more comfortable than the violin by it's self. I feel like it's easier on the neck, because the chin angle doesn't have to bend so much. You get a better grip & in my opinion, a more comfortable grip, so, you can do it longer w/o feeling stressed.Maybe the last paragraph is the important part for many. If it does that for you, than you'll be more inspired to play more.Also - easy to use & set up...

My very very expensive (and old) rest finally met it's demise after many good years of use. I figured it wouldn't hurt to try a more budget friendly rest before dumping my paycheck into a replacement. This one works just as well and is pretty to boot.

This is a nice shape, much better for my body shape than Kun. Lighter and more secure too. But the feet rattle around in the threads like marbles in a jar. Fiddlerman needs to get on the manufacturer about making the threds screw in with closer tolerances.

I’d just like to say that this shoulder rest is awesome. It’s shape is the best feature, contouring perfectly to my shoulder (this could be different for some with a different shoulder, but somehow I feel like this is one of those “one size fits all†kind of deals).The shoulder rest my violin came with was straight all the way across and not very comfortable. I couldn’t even let go of the fingerboard without it falling. That’ changed with this shoulder rest. It helps that it look like real wood even though it’s just a print.All in all, it’s very comfortable, padded well, and sturdy. Since I put it on about 2 months ago, it hasn’t moved out of place even once. Well worth the price. Definitely recommend!

This kept falling off my violin so was rendered completely useless. The feet spin around too easily so it can easily be knocked off but it also just comes off when you're just resting, even when you don't touch it. It also is quite narrow and shaped so differently from my old Kun shoulder rest that I could not get it to feel comfortable. No matter how it was positioned, it felt like it was digging into my shoulder. Returned it. Looks really nice though, wish it worked.

I purchased for my daughter’s full size violin, and we couldn’t find a way to make it comfortable, so I gave her my Kun and started using this one. It’s heavier than the Kun and not as adjustable. My advice- this isn’t worth the cost savings.

this shoulder rest is comfortable and nice to play with - if you can assemble it. the screws on the grips do not easily go with the holes in the top of the rest. luckily i finally got the grips into two of the holes and it fit my violin, but it took a long time and i almost gave up and returned.

I really don't recommend this shoulder rest , it is quite thin and has a pointy feeling once fitted in violin,it is a flimsy loose one, it is a sad purchase
