What Bass Players think:
"These rosins are perfect! I've used it both at my orchestra job and at auditions, and I've never had such a sound quality and precise control, even in stressful conditions. Congratulations!" - Andrea, Italy (BASS)
"I really like these rosins! It sounds somehow warmer and rounder than other rosins, and it gives more contact with the string across the whole bow. It is also long lasting; I have recently played with it twice in a row without needing to reapply. I absolutely find it better than other rosins I have used." - Boris, Netherlands (BASS EXTRA)
"It’s been a few weeks with the new rosin. BASS is awesome! It draws a huge, powerful, and focused tone. Even on my jazz oriented steel strings, it is clear, focused, and powerful. I’m sold!" - Adam, USA (BASS)
"I love the consistent and secure punch!" - Darija, Vienna (BASS EXTRA)
"This rosin gives a lot of warmth, with a smooth sensation and contact. I tried it out on a very tense bass, squaky and difficult to tame, and this rosin made it sound smooth and warm. I''m sold!" - Viviane, Belgium (BASS)
"This rosin has the perfect softness, not too squishy nor too hard, with a firm and secure grip, optimal for orchestral playing." - Giorgio, Italy (BASS)
