Description
The Bernardel Cello or Double Bass Rosin is great for learning the slow-bowed, close to the bridge playing that Gary Karr is known for. This technique is great for solo playing, as it does a great job of cutting down the “muddiness” factor while increasing volume. The sound produced is much more pleasant (clearer, sweeter) using the Bernardel versus more traditional double bass rosins, esp in the higher register.
Bernadel is a fine rosin and has a reputation for leaving less dust than other “solo” or hard rosins and offers “just the right amount of bite”.
It is an amber rosin cake on an attractive chamois cloth in a handsome blue pouch made in France.
