Nero Guarneri Violin Chinrest with Black or Chrome Brackets

Are you conscious of the environmental impact of harvesting 250 year old growth ebony trees for you violin parts? Now Nero is making affordable, eco-friendly ebony alternatives for bowed string instruments with Nero Fittings. We offer beautifully crafted fittings that are hypoallergenic, environmentally sound, and produce stunning sound. FITTINGS MATTER!!! The Guarneri model is the most commonly used chinrest in the world. This very comfortable medium height chinrest is the standard for today's violinist. This center mounted chinrest is 25 mm at the highest point. The arch underneath the chinrest has been carefully designed to clear peaked tailpieces, avoiding buzzes. Figaro fine fittings are made only from the best sourced materials and finished by hand by craftsmen in a family owned business. The Nero material is made in the USA from eucalyptus paper and thermosetting resins. It is pure black and mimics the finest Madagascar ebony. It is hypoallergenic and not susceptible to humidity or temperature change. The surface is impermeable to sweat and body fluids and therefore very easy to clean. The cork (Quercus suber) is the finest quality, fitted precisely to minimize acoustic interference and to maximize stability. The hardware is all individually fitted by hand and are straight and thread easily. The Black brackets have the advantage of being less likely to produce sensitivity reactions for those players with nickel allergies compared to chrome brackets. There are no chinrests available that are superior. Fittings Matter!
