Everest Shoulder Rest

Everest Shoulder Rest. I think I may possibly own or have tried almost every shoulder rest on the market. Blessed with a long neck, I need not only height but also a good, well-conforming shape for my shoulder rest. This shoulder rest has very thick padding, feels well-constructed, fits the violin well without falling off, and is actually a good buy compared to comparable rests such as the Kun or the Viva.

Several of my students prefer the Everest. Typically, these students have long necks and have not been satisfied by other rests that they have tried. Although the 4/4 model is excellent, I have noticed that the smaller sizes seem excessively high for most younger students.

That being said, this rest is built like a tank and costs about $15 (or about $25 for the collapsible version).

If you have had problems finding a comfortable shoulder rest, this is certainly a good option to consider.
