It's very soft, fits perfectly, and is easy to install. The child says it's very comfortable on the neck, much better than the others we bought before.

I have been playing the fiddle for three years using an inexpensive shoulder rest. The only adjustment option was a moderate change in the height. Recently, I was experiencing pain around my collar bone and neck while practicing, so I purchased the Wolf Forte Primo Shoulder Rest. It's sturdy. You can adjust the height, and you can bend the bar that has the foam on it. You can also tilt the bar. The foam is thick. You can bend the brackets with the feet to fit your violin, and you can turn the feet to the right and to the left. The feet are covered with thick rubber so they won't scratch your violin. I am very happy with this shoulder rest because I don't have pain anymore. This might be because of the thick foam and because I was able to adjust it to be higher than my previous shoulder rest. Somebody said this shoulder rest is only good for people with long necks, but my neck is not long and it works for me. Somebody else above asked if it would fit a 7/8 violin. I have a 7/8 violin, and it fits it very well. I highly recommend this shoulder rest.

well, if this works for you it works for you! I’m a violin student at uni— and I’ve tried almost every generic/common shoulderest brand you can think of. That video of Benedetti with a trash bag of her shouldrests is a big mood. But, man. WOLF HAS MY BACK(my neck literally tho). It never lets me down and if it works it works! If it don’t— u can probably find someone else who needed this rest! I like this model becuase it doesn’t have the screw extender that damaged an old violin of mine we it scratched the back by accident… so this one is basically almost the same but without that issue. It’s bendy, firm sponge, and pretty sturdy rubber grasps the violin well. The legs have a lot of room to extend if u are a long necked person! This shoulderrest does have some weight to it when compared to other shoudlerests like kun— but I promise it won’t bother you! And also: for its price point, it attempts to offer you that flexibility to adjust it as much as possible with high quality materials. God I have regretted so many purchases of shoulderests over the years only to come back here again. Wolf, I’m sorry for ever doubting you. You were my day one 😭🫶my violin and my upper body loves you forever.

Very easy to use on and off violin rest. Came with directions, however, seemed to be missing a few parts? Fits easily on back of violin and doesn't fall off while playing. Padding is very comfortable, and the legs of the shoulder rest adjust for height distance between shoulder and chin. Very well made. Only draw back is that it does not swivel back and forth for shoulder adjustment. Overall I give it an "A"

I was surprised at how adjustable this shoulder rest it. It is very easy to bend and make it fit just right. However that is also the problem. It does not hold the shape and has to be adjusted everytime you put it on. I was constantly adjusting and readjusting. I finally decided it was not for me. I want something sturdier.

As an older new violin student, I struggled to hold it correctly. I looked online and purchased a rest that was not adjustable enough, and then I found the Wolf violin rest. All I can say is that it fits my 4/4 violin, is comfortable, and, best of all, it's easier to play, which was what I was looking for. I recommend it to all new students.

First off, let me say that I am trying to get back into the violin after a long absence, so I do not have a lot of experience with shoulder rests. I have tried all manner of positions for this shoulder rest and it simply has not worked for me. I realized after purchasing this shoulder rest that I might have been better served with the Wolf Forte Secundo, which looks like it has more positioning possibilities. Or, with a simple foam rest, which is much cheaper. The pad is not as soft as it looks in the picture. The plate is not quite as malleable as I had hoped. The clasping feet tend to fall off of the violin when I try more extreme positions. I think the product is over-priced. Don't get me wrong - it is decent and has held up under my manipulations. But at $29 I thought it would be softer, sturdier, and more malleable.
