Thumb Saver – Cushioned Thumb Rest Cover for Clarinet & Oboe – 1726
This Selmer Thumb Saver is a soft, rubberized cushion that slips right over a standard clarinet or oboe thumb rest. The whole weight of the instrument rests on that one small point of contact, and a bare metal or plastic rest can get uncomfortable fast during a long rehearsal.
It's a simple fix for a common complaint. Students especially tend to notice thumb soreness before they build up the calluses and technique that make it less of an issue, so this is a smart add-on for anyone just starting out.
Key Features
Soft Rubberized Plastic
A cushioned material that softens the point of contact against the thumb.
Slips Over the Thumb Rest
Fits directly over a standard thumb rest without any tools or adhesive.
Disperses the Weight
Spreads the instrument's weight over a wider area instead of one hard edge.
Reduces Hand Fatigue
Makes it easier to get through long practice sessions or performances comfortably.
No-Scratch Installation
Slides on easily without marking up the instrument's finish.
Fits Clarinet & Oboe
Sized for the standard thumb rest found on most clarinets and oboes.
Care Tip: If the cushion starts to feel loose after months of use, it's an easy, inexpensive swap rather than something to try to glue or repair.
