ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A violin or the like shoulder rest is disclosed, wherein the transverse inclination of the elongated base (12, 61) relative to the clamping forks (15, 16, 93, 102) is limited to an angle of about 5' to about 25° to reduce the llkelihood of damaging the instrument by inadvertently impacting the bottom of the violin with the edge of the base of the shoulder rest. A preferred embodiment provides the advantage of transfer of load forces from the clamping forks (93, 102) to the base (61) through bearing caps (89, 100) rather than by way of pivot pins (87, 88, 98, 99), to allow substantial reduction in size of the pivot pins. In a particularly preferred embodiment, rectangular blocks (82, 95) are pivotable each within a complementary cavity provided in the respective post at the end of the base.
