Kun Original Violin Shoulder Rest
The practical, uncomplicated design of the Kun Original shoulder rest is based on the earliest handmade model. With its simple adjusting mechanisms, the Kun Original has remained the favourite of amateur and professional players. This rest is adjustable in three directions, and the end members are fitted with a patented locking device to ensure that it will not fully rotate to touch the instrument.
Available for the following sizes: 4/4, ½-3/4 and mini (1/16-1/4).
Testimonials:
"I am glad to say that the Kun Original shoulder rest is my favourite shoulder rest. It is durable, comfortable, and fits on both of my violins. Not only this, but it has a very convenient shape for shoulder position and a practical height......all of my teachers have recommended the Kun shoulder rest. In fact, most of the violinists and violists in my orchestra use this brand. In my opinion, the Kun is the best type of shoulder rest there is. I would recommend the Kun shoulder rest over any shoulder rest to anyone. I am really glad to be the owner of a Kun shoulder rest..."

A note on the Kun Original: The T-shaped feet on this model should not be removed to make the rest fit into your instrument case. Regularly pulling the foot and round drum out of the L-shaped end member and reinserting it weakens the composite plastic from which the shoulder rest is made and can damage the shoulder rest. If you need a more compact rest, try the Kun Collapsible or Solo model, which folds for easy storage.
The Original also cannot be modified with Collapsible end members.
