Key Features
The Pirastro KorfkerSpring Chinrest for Violin and Viola is designed for players who want a fully adjustable, lightweight, and comfort-focused setup for everyday practice and performance. Its patented spring system gives you fine control over height, rotation, tilt, and placement, helping you tailor the fit to match your posture and playing style. You?ll also appreciate how the flexible structure encourages free movement while easing upper-body tension, something that is ideal when playing long rehearsals or back-to-back concerts.
Shaped from hardened Swiss maple and weighing just 15 grams, the chin plate supports the natural resonance of your instrument, helping maintain clarity and projection. Six included springs let you adjust the height in 5 mm steps from 25 to 50 mm, so you can dial in the feel that suits you best. It also comes with a protective case for safe transport.
Please note: Violin not included

The KorfkerSpring’s spring-based mechanism gives you precise control over how the chinrest sits on your violin or viola, letting you adjust height, rotation, tilt, and position with confidence. If you’ve ever struggled to find a chinrest that truly fits, this system offers a straightforward way to build a setup that supports your posture, reduces physical strain, and encourages relaxed, natural playing. It means less time dealing with discomfort and more time feeling at ease with your instrument.
Weighing just 15 grams, the chinrest is built from sound-optimised materials, including a hardened Swiss maple plate that preserves the instrument’s acoustic responsiveness. This ultra-light design keeps added mass to a minimum, helping your violin or viola resonate freely. You’ll notice the instrument responding more openly, with projection and tonal detail staying clear and consistent.
With six interchangeable springs offering height settings from 25 to 50 mm in 5 mm increments, you can easily match the chinrest to your natural playing stance. These options support players with different neck lengths and posture requirements, helping you settle into a balanced position that feels secure without forcing tension. And because the adjustments are simple, you can refine the setup as your technique evolves.
Whether you mount your chinrest at the centre or to the side, the KorfkerSpring fits both violins (three-quarter to full size) and violas, giving you flexibility across instruments. This makes it a dependable choice if you switch between the two or simply prefer a particular mounting style. A protective case is included, too, keeping the chinrest safe when stored in your case or carried between sessions.
