For me, I play semi-serious amateur orchestral double bass, and this has the perfect amount of grip for me. Pop's feels too sticky to me. This is perfect for a sweet tone.

If you play the Bass, this is the best rosin out there. We have used what the local store had on the shelf, we have used what the music instructor had available. Then we found out about Carlsson. Clearly a better product.

I was using Pop's and a friend recommended this. I think it is a little grippier than Pop's. if that makes sense. It seems to be a little stickier in getting the bow to grab the string and start the note. Still going back and forth, but it definitely works well.

Best rosin out there. Period. Carlsson is a dark rosin that is much softer than most, but it gives you a grip like no other rosin has, and it lasts longer as well. I have used for Solo and Orchestral work, and have found it to be extremely effective in both scenarios.My only exception is Baroque, in which the grip is simply uncharacteristic. Also, it melts extremely quickly when in the car, so never leave it out there.Best all-around rosin out there.

I used a very soft rosin when I lived in Chicago. My first rosin was Pops but it was messy and wasn't the greatest in a cold climate. Having moved South to a much warmer and humid climate, I read that harder rosins would work better. So far, the Carlsson rosin has worked pretty well. It is hard but doesn't create a lot of dust. I still need to wipe down the strings after practicing, but not nearly as much as when I used Pops rosin.

From a 30-year professional Symphony bassist - I've tried a half-dozen different brands ofString Bass rosin, but the Carlsson Bass Rosin is the finest. It consistently givesme the best grip on the bow hair that really vibrates the strings and makes theinstrument really sing. Another plus - it doesn't coat the bow hair with a slick residuelike some other brands.Highly recommended!

This is a great rosin and highly recommended for bass bows, especially if it has black hair. Nice price about 30-40% lower than at local stores if you can even find it.
