Frequently Asked Questions...

Violin shoulder rest brand recommendations?

I am having trouble deciding which brand I should buy; it's between these ones
- Resonans
-Wolf Forte
- Kun
*if you have any other brands you would recommend, by all means tell me*


Answer:

I don't like any of those overly priced shoulder rests. I use a sponge shoulder rest that they sell at the maximum for $5 because you can shift it around I think they are more soft and comfortable. I tried a kun for a month and hated it.

Violin Cases and Violin Accessories: Online Shopping

Shopping for a musical instrument or especially for a string based musical instrument is an important investment in one's life. It could be a violin, viola, cello guitar or any other such instrument. Other musical accessories like cases are equally important to safeguard your musical instruments. If required care is not provided, this could lead to a compromise in the quality and sound of your musical instrument.

If we consider a violin, today there is a huge variety of models and accessories available to choose from. After understanding your particular needs, you can make a good choice for any violin case that not only protects your investment, but in addition offers sufficient space and ease of transport. Nowadays, several online stores offer branded violin strings, a violin outfit and other accessories at low shipping rates.

One known type of violin case is a suspension case. As the name suggests, these cases suspend the violin within them, keeping the instrument from actually touching the perimeters. Even though a suspension case provides additional protection, one should still make sure the violin is held securely within the case. The instrument can encounter damages if the case is dropped.

While shopping for a violin case from an online store, the very first thing you should determine is your price range. Cases can range from a few hundred dollars to a thousand dollars and can be available with a wide variety of features. The process of shopping is easy for those who have a better understanding of violins and violin cases.

It is very important to invest money and time on a high quality instrument. An effective violin case not only keeps your violin safe but also protects it from damages. Hence, it is always recommended to keep your instrument in its case when not in use. A few known and recommended brands for violin cases include Musafia, Bam, Gewa, Bobelock, Negri, Accord and Concord. Hence, as per individual needs, you can select violin cases and accessories.
