WAV VIOLIN INSTRUCTIONS
SHOULDER REST
Bend the malleable aluminum base as desired with fingers and thumb as shown below. The shape should
be adjusted so the rest is comfortable and stable on the shoulder and across the chest.
The round connecting arm should extend from the shoulder rest up into the back of the violin as shown at the
right. The connecting arm should slide up into the hole located on the back adjacent to the knob near the
chin rest bar (loosen knob first). Slide the connecting arm in or out to set the height of the shoulder rest. The
clamp on the shoulder rest adjusts the angle and location. When a comfortable position is achieved, tighten
both knobs to prevent movement.

To store the violin in its case, loosen both knobs and slide the entire shoulder rest assembly out of the
instrument. Fold the connecting arm flat against the shoulder rest. The violin and rest are now ready to be
placed in the case. Do not leave the connecting arm in the violin when it is stored in its case.
ADJUSTMENT OF THE SHOULDER REST CLAMPS
If the two clamps associated with the shoulder rest assembly (one on the body of the instrument, one on the
base of the shoulder rest) are not properly adjusted, slippage of the support arm or shoulder rest base can be
expected. When a user is experiencing difficulty, the first thing to check is whether the two members of the
clamp touch each other at one end or the other. If they do, loosen the clamp and adjust the set screw (the
one at the end opposite the thumb screw) so that, when tightened,
the two halves are parallel. Once that has been checked or
adjusted, another easy step is to apply a coating of powdered
rosin to the support rod where it contacts the clamp. Then tighten
the thumb screw firmly.
This photo shows the proper orientation of the two clamp
members, and the arrow points to the set screw used to adjust the
position. This screw can be turned by hand, but it can also be
adjusted using a hex key. Always loosen the thumb screw before
adjusting the set screw.
