"I have been playing with the same Wolf Primo shoulder rest for at least 5 years now, and it is the only shoulder rest (company- the Secondo model fits some students better than the primo) I recommend. Here is why: SECURE and DURABLE: The rubber grips hold more securely than any other brand (ahem, Kun) and to this day never slip off. FLEXIBLE: They can be bent and customized for every body shape, jaw angle, collarbone, and body-to-violin angle for the perfect fit. I am petite and therefore need to hold my violin more forward so that I can keep my bow straight at the tip. Standard-shaped shoulder rests force my violin out to the side where I literally cannot reach. TALL-FRIENDLY: Useful for all heights of violinists, with 2 levels of screw-based height adjustment MONEY-SAVING: Fitting 3/4 is great for many students as they can buy one and be done with it. CONVENIENT: They are collapsible, so they can fit in many cases alongside the neck of the instrument."

I got this Shoulder Rest because I wanted more height on one side of my violin than the other. This rest can be adjusted to maximum height on one side and minimum on the other side. It is very well made and sturdy. The rest also can swing slightly right or left for greater flexibility than other rests.

I made the test for different shoulder rests of violin. Only this one make your instrument sounds better, the others were not, sometimes other shoulder rests like a mute made your violin weaker sound. Highly and undoubtedly recommend!!!

why pay high prices for fancy shoulder rests that all off all the time, anyway? This shoulder rest is BENDABLE, you can band it to fit your shoulder, you can bend the feet in or out to fit the sides, and they fold down to go in a case.I've been using this brand for 30 years (at that time was the "expensive" one!) I've replaced it because someone's dog got it, then the next one the sponge got really thin. The rubber on the feet does wear down quickly, especially because I insist on sliding it on so I don't have to constantly rebound it. I purchase Rubber tubing from the plumbing section of a hardware store and cut it and slide on myself. Plumbers tubing can be a little too stiff, so if you prefer, I believe the rubber tips can be purchased. I would not have any other shoulder rest.

This shoulder rest was a game-changer for me. It has the comfort and durability of an Everest with the height of a Kun,and it has made a big difference in my neck and shoulder soreness while playing. I've had it for 2 years now and it's in perfect condition!
