Description

As a darker rosin with a slightly softer constitution than many alternatives, AB’s rosin is designed to deliver good levels of smooth traction with a medium-rated Grip Profile of 5 (GPR#5). Therefore, AB rosin can be chosen by any standard of musician but can be considered perfectly suitable for beginners up to early conservatoire players.

The cello rosin is slightly softer than the violin counterpart.

Wrapped in soft cloth with a ribbon tie, AB rosin retains a traditional aesthetic and can be easily un-tied and re-tied and placed safely within your instrument case (blue cloth for violin & viola, green cloth for Cello).

Made to the same recipe as set out by Amy Birch decades ago, AB Violin and Cello rosins are lovingly made in England using a time-honoured Artisanal process of hand-mixing and hand-pouring.

Pros: My teacher recommended AB Rosin, he's tried all sorts and he still stands that it's the best. It's does the job. My tone has improved no end since using it. It's remarkably good value. I certainly won't be using anything else in future.

Cons: Nothing.

A real improvement on my last rosin
3 out of 4 found the following review helpful

Pros: Much easier to apply evenly than the really hard stuff I was using. Gives a much smoother run on the bow.

Cons: It makes the bow hair green after a while!

An Old Faithful of a Rosin
3 out of 4 found the following review helpful

Pros: AB Rosin has been around for a long long time and is really an old and faithful product. I think that it is one up from the student Hindersine range but not quite up there in price with the Hills, Art Craft etc. What you get is a very good Rosin that works onto the bow easily and certainly does the job.

Cons: At times I feel that I am using the Rosin a lot to keep the desired sound. Pay more and you will eliminate this bug.

Other: Great for students and teachers however Yeudi Menuin may wish to look elsewhere ;)
