I am new to arco technique and so far I have tried three types of rosin: Nyman, Millant-Deroux and JADE. I like JADE the best! Smooth rich tone for days and days!

I first want to say this rosin is not for everyone, however i love it. I bought it because it was on sale at the time, i had an audition coming up and it said "Solo bass rosin", so I figured why not and bought it. You get a really smooth tone that i've had a hard time finding with other rosins, which makes it ideal for sonata work, among other things. It takes a little bit of use to get the cake going and for it to apply easier, but once you do it's great. It really does help give a smooth, warm tone it just takes a little bit of bow technique as it's not the easiest to use.
