Hidersine Clear Viola Bow Rosin (Light / Large Size)

Hidersine Clear Viola Bow Rosin (Light / Large Size)

This viola rosin, known as 1VA Viola Rosin, has been thoughtfully developed by Hidersine in England to cater specifically to the needs of viola players. It came to fruition after numerous requests for a product tailored to the nuances of the viola.

Key Features:

Custom Formulation: The lower register and slightly thicker string profile of the viola demanded a unique rosin formula. By adjusting both the core mixture and processing methods, Hidersine's craftsmen have created what is believed to be the ideal rosin for the viola.

Enhanced Control: Hidersine 1VA rosin offers viola players enhanced control, designed to emphasise the instrument's rich and expressive nature.

Grip Profile: With a Grip Profile Rating of #5, this rosin strikes a balance between the rigidity of regular light/hard violin rosin (like the 1V or 3V) and the softness of darker violin rosins (such as 6V). This middle-ground formulation suits the viola exceptionally well, providing optimal grip and traction while maintaining ease of play.

Craftsmanship: Crafted in England, United Kingdom, this Hidersine Rosin undergoes a traditional artisanal process of hand-mixing and hand-pouring, ensuring quality and authenticity.

As a general guideline, rosin tends to be softer for instruments with larger strings. Violin rosin is harder than cello rosin, which, in turn, is harder than double bass rosin. The Viola Rosin - Light - Large Size strikes the perfect balance, making it an excellent choice for viola players seeking precise control and a rich, resonant sound. 🎻🌟
