Mango Slim Viola Chinrest in Ebony
The Mango Slim chinrest belongs to the new Mango family (the "Mangoniere"): it is a slightly "slenderer" version. The core features remain the same: its significant height and unique shape promote better posture and greater relaxation of the neck and shoulder muscles. Ideal for those with a medium-to-long neck, the Mango Slim offers remarkable comfort both for players accustomed to a central position over the tailpiece and for those who prefer a more lateral "anchor." Furthermore, it allows for effortless transitions between positions during a performance, according to the player's needs.
Benefits
We know all too well that the violin is an unforgiving instrument. It is complex and fascinating, yet it forces us into a posture that is far from ideal. The neck, in particular, is subject to constant strain. With the Mango series chinrests, stress on the neck is significantly reduced, allowing for longer practice sessions with fewer "side effects."
Ebony
Ebony (with Indian, African, and Indonesian being the most common varieties) can be defined as the "great classic" of fitting woods. It is the hardwood par excellence. It can appear completely black or feature brown streaks and grain patterns that range from subtle to more pronounced.
