ABSTRACT:
The invention proposes a chin rest for a string instrument, e.g. a violin or fiddle, that is equipped, in its chin rest plate, with an opening that enables a better conformance of the chin rest to the human contour and that is possibly held in pivotable fashion to the body of the string instrument and, therewith, can follow the pivoting motions of the head of the person using the instrument. Furthermore, the chin rest is combined with a so-called damper support.
