Within our extensive range, you can find light rosins, dark rosins, for gut strings, and even rosins for musicians allergic to rosin.
Violin bow rosin is used to enhance the quality of the sound produced by a violin. The rosin is rubbed onto the bow so that it can properly adhere to the violin strings, allowing them to vibrate with full sound and clarity.
Rosin is one of the cheapest accessories in violin practice, but that doesn't mean just any rosin will do, as it is much more important to choose the right one than its low price might suggest.
There are many different brands of rosin, which differ in both quality and price. There are various characteristics of violin rosins that should be taken into account before choosing one.
The colour and shape of the rosin are irrelevant, as they do not define its quality. The hardness of the rosin is what can vary the most, as it is related to the grip the bow has on the string. The softer the rosin, the more grip it will have on the string.
Soft rosins are recommended for double bass players, while harder rosins are intended for violinists and violists. In the case of violins, they have a quicker response and require less bow grip on the string.
The type of string on the instrument is also very important because, depending on its material, the rosin should be softer or harder. Gut strings, for example, require soft rosins, while synthetic core strings will need a medium-hard rosin. The hardest rosins are for metal core strings.
