This is one of the reasons why some musicians prefer the Kun. The other being that the Kun offers better acoustic qualities than the Everest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCan be adjusted in three directions: height, width and tilt.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOverall shape and curvature of the rest suits around 95% of players.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThick foam for comfort – 8mm.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOver-moulded rubber feet that minimise contact and protect your violin.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo feet are included – short (14mm thread length), long (20mm thread length).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdjustable – Unscrew feet brackets and select alternate positions for best fit to the instrument.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExtra height can be achieved by swapping out the regular feet for extra-long feet.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChoose 'click-and-collect' to have your shoulder rest fitted for free in our showroom.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kun","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58987892146316,"sku":null,"price":84.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/bowsforstrings.com\/products\/kun-original-shoulder-rest-5-4-viola","provider":"Bows For Strings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
