Wilfer TEKA Violin Chinrest- Height Adjustable-Left Side
TEKA chin rests are one of the most famous chin rests. With this model, you can adjust the height to suit the player's long neck.
This Tekka-style ebony chinrest fits 4/4 violins with chrome fittings. It is made in Germany in the workshop of Reiner Wilfer, with a slightly different shape and height than a regular Tekka chin rest. This chinrest is height adjustable, and so is easily able to suit the individual player. It has an arched plate, suitable for players who like to hold their violin further towards the middle, compared to the Dresden style, which lets the player place their chin further to the left. It is a large-sized chinrest with a medium-depth cup that mounts next to the tailpiece and extends slightly over it. The lip is nicely rounded yet clean and sharp, giving an arched effect. This chinrest sits to the left of the tailpiece and can be screwed on using a chinrest tool.
To install:
As the product picture shows, loosen the brackets and rest the chinrest over the tailpiece.
Following this, insert the tip of the chinrest tool into one of the little holes on the bracket, and turn to tighten.
Repeat with the other bracket.
