Leatherwood Amber Range - Double Bass Rosin

The Amber Range helps Double Bass players find the exact combination of stickiness, grip, traction & lyrical quality to suit their playing needs.

These recipes do not dry out like other rosins and one recipe would last 1-2 years with intensive playing. You can also mix them on the bow for a more customized result.

CodaBow offers two bass rosin recipes: 30% and 50%. The higher the percentage, the softer the rosin.

30% BLEND

While maintaining the lyrical qualities of the harder solo rosins, this recipe range offers a little more 'stick' at the beginning of the note allowing for greater projection when needed. 

50% BLEND

Much softer and stickier, these rosins are designed to offer superior strength of 'stick' and power, particularly for the lower or extended strings.

GRIP: The strength of ‘stickiness’ at the beginning of the note

TRACTION: The strength of the stickiness for sustained bowing

LYRICAL QUALITY: How well the rosin performs for singing quality, particularly in higher registers.

POWDER CONTENT: How much powder resin is included.

PLIABILITY: How soft or malleable the rosin is in your hand.
