Viva la Musica viola shoulder rests have a beautiful design and are made of Maple or Walnut wood. Optionally, black or gold-coloured end supports are available, which are rotatable, foldable and infinitely adjustable in height. The flexible hardened steel clamping parts provide an excellent grip between the shoulder rest and the violin. A solid foam rubber grip is glued to the wooden part. Viva la Musica shoulder rests provide less damping of instrument vibrations due to the shape, angle of adjustment and placement of the fork feet. There are various versions available that can be chosen (shape, type of wood, size and version of the fork feet). For large violas (>16"), the XXL model is recommended.
