Great Thumb Rest

Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R3GLBHCDDTJI9B When I received the new thumb rest I was glad since I haven't played my clarinet for a while. Because of that after seeing and the great picture shown it was easy to choose the Pro Tec product. I had already received my Wood Clarinet Maintenance Kit and in it was two foam thumb protectors. Since it has been a while for me I still give it five stars because I believe the problem is me and not the product. I hope you enjoy the video review from here and the last reviewer was correct. I am going to try the Yamaha Thumb Rest to see the difference. I believe his name is "Mike" who gave an excellent review. Let me know if I can do anything better in my reviews.

Great thumb rest cushion by Protec

This Protec thumb rest cushion (available direct from Amazon) is as good as it gets. It fits snugly on the thumb rest, is larger than most--providing a very large support area, and the cushion is made of a very soft translucent synthetic rubber like material. It provides great support and comfort. One thing to look out for with the Protec cushion is that its size can be a problem in clarinet cases that do not allow much depth beneath the thumb rest. For a smaller sized cushion that is not much larger than the thumb rest, or if you want one in black rather than translucent material, go with the Yamaha thumb rest. The Yamaha cushion, though very comfortable and a snug fit also, is made of not quite as soft a material, and being smaller in diameter distributes the weight over a smaller area.

UPDATE TO THIS REVIEW: Now that I have used both the Protec and Yamaha thumb rest cushions for some months now, I actually have a slight preference for the Yamaha cushion over the Protec. I find the firmer material and smaller size of the Yamaha cushion to actually be more comfortable and less distracting. I also have found that most clarinet cases do not accommodate the larger size of the Protec cushion, but the Yamaha cushion usually fits just fine. The final word is that both thumb rests are excellent, and your preference will depend upon you.
