 Re: Kooiman Thumb Rest
Author: Clarinetgirl06

I bought a Ridenour thumb saddle instead of a Kooiman thinking it would be an OK option. I have an R13 and when the thumb saddle went on my thumb rest there was this huge gap inbetween the saddle and the body of the clarinet. So, I found an old sock and cut it to fit the back of the thumb saddle and I glued it on (2-3 layers of sock) the back of the saddle. Now there is not gap but I have this problem with the saddle falling off of my thumbrest. It slowly slides off and then falls to the ground which becomes horribly distracting and annoying. Also, the sort of seam on the rubber stuff from the saddle itches my finger. Some may like it, but I don't.
