❓ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is a thumb rest and why use a cushion?
A thumb rest is a small metal or plastic fitting on the body of a clarinet or oboe where the right thumb rests to support the instrument. During extended playing it can press against the thumb and cause discomfort or callus. The BG A21 cushion softens this contact and protects the skin.
What is elastomer?
Elastomer is a synthetic rubber-based material with excellent shock-absorbing properties. It is soft, resilient, wear-resistant, and comfortable to the touch. BG France uses elastomer for thumb rest cushions because it effectively reduces pressure and retains its shape with extended use.
Does A21 fit all clarinets?
The A21 Small fits small-size thumb rests on Eb and Bb clarinets (standard and German system), oboe, and English horn. For larger thumb rests (such as on a bass clarinet), other BG France sizes may be required — please ask the SoundsGood team for guidance.
How do I fit the cushion?
The BG A21 cushion slides directly onto the thumb rest without any tools or adhesive. The elastomer grips the thumb rest securely and stays in place during playing. To remove, simply pull the cushion off the thumb rest.
