Tido Composite Violin Shoulder Rest 4/4-3/4

The Tido Composite 3/4-4/4 Violin Shoulder Rest is a great option for violinists looking for a shoulder rest that is comfortable and affordable with an adjustable tilt.

Tido shoulder rests are a similar shape to that of the Everest and the Kun and suit quite a number of players, however there are a few key differences. The Tido offers an adjustable tilt, while the Everest has a fixed tilt. This comes down to how the player prefers to position their violin.

Compared to the Kun rest, the Tido is a bit heavier. Heavier shoulder rests can affect the resonance of your instrument, so professional players usually prefer the Kun for this reason, however for a beginner to intermediate player, the Tido would be perfectly fine, and a lot more affordable!

The Tido has thick 6mm foam padding for comfort and is available in three sizes. Each size has the ability to be adjusted in three directions (height, width and tilt), unlike the Kun rest which only has the tilt option in the 1/2-3/4 and 4/4 rests. If the player is on a 1/8 or 1/4 violin and you require a tilt then the Tido would be a great option.

Our staff have rated Tido rests as the best violin shoulder rests for beginners to intermediate players in regard to their functionality and price.
