From: "webler1" <webler1@-----.com> Subj: [kl] Thumb Rest Date: Fri, 12 Oct 2001 01:46:43 -0400
To all,
Despite my seeming unconcern for thumb pain (according to some), as
illustrated in my "Ten Little Children" illustration, I am looking for an
alternative that will help young students so that they can concentrate on
music rather than calisthenics.
In my search I have come across an ad in the September issue of "Clarinet"
which shows the "new Ton Koolman" Thumb rest.
It has a suggested retail price of $29.95 which is far more reasonable than
the more expensive versions.
My question is; has anyone tried this thumb rest and does it work. There is
a picture of this thumb rest at www.rokatec.com for anyone who is
interested. The version of thumb rest I am referring to is the "Etude" not
the "Maestro".
