The StradPad is a soft, foam-cushioned pad that fits securely over the chin rest and curves gently around the back of the instrument—offering comfort, protection, and ease of use for violin and viola players of all levels. Ideal for sensitive skin or players who experience discomfort from prolonged contact with the instrument, it relieves pressure from the neck and chin area while promoting a natural, relaxed playing position.
Featuring a secure Velcro attachment, the StradPad is easily removable and washable—no more fiddling with handkerchiefs or bulky covers. It provides a clean, stable feel without interfering with your instrument’s tone or projection.
Available in beige or black, and in Regular (10.5 cm) or Large (13 cm) sizes. Both can be trimmed with scissors for a perfect fit, even on fractional-size instruments.
🎵 Staff Notes 🎵 "We’ve had so many players breathe a sigh of relief after installing the StradPad. It’s soft, secure, and makes a huge difference in comfort—without muffling the sound like a cloth can."
