Our Teachers' Review
The right thumb supports the entire weight of the clarinet, and the small metal thumb rest can become uncomfortable during longer practice sessions. This gel cushion slips over the thumb rest and provides a soft, ergonomic surface that distributes pressure more evenly.
Our teachers strongly recommend a thumb rest cushion for any student who practices for more than 15-20 minutes at a time. Thumb soreness is one of the most common complaints from clarinet students, and this simple, affordable solution eliminates the problem entirely.
