Description
The Viva Shoulder Rest Spares VIVA RIGHT FOOT SH 18MM is a genuine replacement foot for Viva violin and viola shoulder rests, created for players and teachers who need a quick, reliable fix when a foot goes missing or wears out. The 18 mm height helps you maintain the familiar playing angle and comfort of your existing rest, so there is no need to adjust posture or change setup. It restores secure contact with the instrument while protecting the varnish, letting you focus on music rather than hardware. Ideal for students, advancing players and school departments that keep essential spares close to hand.
Built to Viva’s precise tolerances, this right side foot uses a cushioned rubber contact to grip the instrument ribs confidently without marking, paired with a robust threaded stem for a firm, rattle free fit. The defined 18 mm specification preserves the geometry of your rest and keeps balance consistent across practice and performance. Compared with basic student spares, the fit and finish feel more refined, with a smoother thread, neat moulding and materials chosen for durability and comfort. Installation is straightforward and can usually be done by hand, so you can swap the part in moments and get straight back to playing.
For UK tuition and school use, this spare offers practical value and peace of mind. Tutors can resolve a wobbly or missing shoulder rest foot immediately, keeping lessons, rehearsals and exams on track. Pupils benefit from consistent support that promotes healthy posture and reduces distractions during practice. It is a cost effective way to extend the life of existing Viva rests across a department or at home, avoiding the expense of a complete replacement. Before ordering, check which side of the rest requires a foot and confirm the 18 mm size to ensure the correct match for your model.
