If you like the sound the shoulder horn creates, but you have an exceptionally high neck, let us know. We can increase the height of your chin rest or arrange a custom fit for you, but try the high shoulder horn first. The higher you make the shoulder rest, the higher you must lift your bowing arm. Therefore, raising the chin rest is preferable to raising the height of the shoulder horn.
