Poly Pad Shoulder Rest - Blue
Poly-Pad Blue Sponge Shoulder Rest for Violin & Viola
A denser foam shoulder rest (sponge-style support) for players who want a firmer, more secure feel.
If a shoulder rest is too soft, some students feel like the instrument still “floats” or shifts. Poly-Pad Blue is similar to the charcoal Poly-Pad, but this blue version is more dense, giving a firmer feel while still keeping that simple, student-friendly sponge setup many teachers prefer.
Whether you’re teaching beginners or supporting a growing player, Poly-Pad Blue is a practical way to improve comfort and stability without a complicated shoulder rest system.
