Great design and fit, excellent for the price

Pros: Nice design and comfortable fit

Cons: Perhaps could have given more clearance to cover even more of the the tailpiece?

Other: This has helped towards correcting my 'crooked' bowing problem by moving my chin more towards the tailpiece.

Fantastic value for money.

Cons: No dislikes at all.

A good chinrest, worth trying.

Pros: Comfortable for me. Lightweight. Tone seems the same over an ebony chinrest.

Cons: No cons. Gently tighten the screws to avoid rib damage.

Good, modern chin-rest

Pros: A modern, well designed chin rest, very easy to fit without messing about with bits of wire and risking scratching your precious fiddle. Comfortable for me; but obviously suitability of chin-rest depends on your dimensions. . Plastic, but with a pleasant texture that doesn't get sweaty or irritate the skin.

Cons: Doesn't look quite as nice as traditional wooden chin-rests.

Is this the perfect chin rest?

Pros: More and more string players appear to be holding their instrument more centrally over the tail piece. The Witter side mounted chin rest appears to achieve that function admirably.

Cons: None

Other: The angle of inserting the legs might appear confusing but only at first.

Light-weight, comfortable and easy to fit

Pros: Comfortable, light-weight and quite low profile (which I was looking for). Just the right size to give side and some centre coverage. Easier to fit than other chin rests as it uses an ordinary screwdriver (supplied). Recommended and used by my teacher.

Cons: None
