Our new BVS professional chinrests are created to replicate the style of the legendary JSB model 135 large plate Guarneri chinrest, which was our most popular shape due to its comfort and traditional styling.

Available in ebony, boxwood, rosewood and tamarind. Tamarind is a non-restricted, cultivated wood that mimics the hue of rosewood, and makes an excellent substitute where either conservation or trade restrictions are a concern.

• If you have an instrument set up in rosewood, and it sounds a bit rough or edgy, replace the chinrest with tamarind to smooth out the tone and make it more pleasant
