Is the accessory pocket large enough to hold a shoulder rest?

Yes, but there is a space inside the case just for the shoulder rest. The accessory pocket is the entire side of the case.

There is a shoulder rest holder under the neck of the violin. It holds by Velcro

Yes, plenty of room for shoulder rest. It is actually a compartment inside the case. This is my 13 year old son's case and it is performing above my expectation in functionality and durability. Only complaint would be TSA lock is cheap but we do not utilize that component.

Lou: Yes it is large enough. Plus on the support where the neck of the violin rests on the case there is the velcro loop that is designed just for the bridge. A cool feature that preserves space in the accessory box. It is the best case that I have had... really solid straps, metal pieces...fellow fiddlers have been impressed and have inquired about it. It a good one. Dr. Dan

Yes. However there is also a velcro strap in the case itself to hold the shoulder rest in.

There is plenty of room and even a specially designated place inside the case under the neck of the violin for a shoulder rest

It's a tight fit, but, yes, a shoulder rest will fit in the case with the instrument.

Yes, most definitely. It's well made. I have used it when biking and walking. The straps provide more than enough padding for the shoulders so I haven't suffered from neck/shoulder pain whenever I have my Macbook Air, charger & more in it.

No, its too small. I find that a neck strap is far better and can be used as a shoulder strap too.

Sure. The shoulder straps hooks are plastic, and sometimes pop off, but if you stowed the strap in the bag, shouldn't be a problem. No pockets at all, strictly a duffle bag.

There is a belt sleeve that you could put a shoulder strap through. I suppose that would work.

Absolutely! It's got a bunch of handy pockets. I love mine so much! Best thing I've ever bought!

Yes i would say a small one no longer than 12 inches when collapsed would fit nicely. Anything much larger than that will be too heavy and long to be secure in the mesh pocket. Love my Lowepro bag though, very glad I made the purchase.

It should. My daughter's shoulder rest is an adjustable full-size and there's room to spare.

I think so, I just looked at it and there appears to be enough room. I like the holster, the only draw back is the metal belt clip tends to rub against the skin. I just shift it around and it seems to be fine. Good Luck!

No. I would recommend doing a search on 1/8th violin shoulder rest, or consider one of the pad-type rests that might fit.

I doubt it. Mine has a chin rest but no shoulder rest. With the chin rest it is almost flush to the top of where the fiddle sits in the case. There is lots of room to put the shoulder rest though.

It fits, not comfortably. Hip pocket is best and easily accessible. You still need to practice for a liquid smooth retrieval.

No, not really. I am pretty thin and I can hang it over my shoulder but I wouldn't call it comfortable. Pretty tight under the arm. And with any kind of jacket, etc. it would not work at all. Made for carrying by hand, I would say.

Absolutely! Either on one shoulder like if you're just going out to the car, or on both like a backpack. There's a photo of the back here: http://static.music123.com/derivates/18/001/306/318/DV016_Jpg_Large_541318.001_black_back.jpg

My daughter had the same shoulder rest and it fit perfectly. The first pouch we baught was too small but this one was perfect.

No, it rests on your shoulder with the other end on your opposite hip. I wear two to balance them out and double my capacity.
