G-Model Ultralight Shoulder Rest
For violin & viola, completely handmade and eco-friendly in South America using natural, sustainable materials. Starting with reclaimed redwood from the south of Chile - incredibly light and resonant. The curve - designed using Fibonacci’s Golden Ratio - hits perfectly below your collar bone and becomes virtually invisible to the audience.
Attaches to the back of your instrument unlike any other shoulder rest on the market.
Simply:
1. PEEL …off the feet protectors
2. STICK-ON …the back of your violin or viola where you would normally place your sponge, shoulder rest. etc.
3. PLAY!
Ultra lightweight at 20/21 grams (less than 1 ounce!) Chilean Redwood adds a layer of tonal richness and can even help your instrument’s overall response.
Using a proprietary NANO-SUCTION adhesive secure enough to prevent the shoulder rest from sliding, but completely adjustable in position - it can easily be “peeled” off the instrument when not in use. All while guaranteed not to leave any marks or residue on your instrument’s varnish.
Paired with our precision-cut Portuguese cork feet, imagine the freedom of playing without a shoulder rest - simply with an added boost in height and even greater support without compromising the sound quality of your instrument.
Can also be used with our three-point elastic band only* (available separately).
*Please indicate when ordering if you would prefer your shoulder rest without adhesive
DETAILS + DIMENSIONS:
Available in three different heights:

Testimonials
“It's such an eye-opening and generally pleasant experience to be able to play anything I was already capable of playing but not having to constantly engage either of my shoulders.
I have no other words, and am adjusting promptly.”

I have a FAT BUTT viola 11” wide lower bout…nothing has worked on it…until now! Thrilled how the SR fits in both my violin and viola case…AT LAST!”
-John P.
“Way beyond my expectations. I expected it would be comfortable, but I couldn’t believe that I don’t feel fatigue when I play. Definitely worth the money! Great job.”
