Smooth application

No dust clouds or flaking issues. It melts onto the bow hair evenly, providing immediate response. Highly recommended for serious bassists.

Living in a climate with varying temperatures, finding an all-season rosin was crucial. This product delivers reliable traction in both summer and winter.

Best rosin I have used

I have tried many brands over my 20 years of playing, and Kolstein Ultra Gold is superior. It offers great control for both pizzicato and arco techniques.

Good value for professionals

While slightly pricier than student options, the longevity and quality of sound make it worth every penny. A little goes a long way.

Great sound quality

The tone produced is warm and clear. It took a few days to break in, but now it applies smoothly. The metal can is also much more durable than plastic boxes.

Perfect for orchestral playing

This rosin provides excellent grip without being too sticky. I use it year-round in my symphony orchestra and it performs consistently regardless of humidity changes.

5 FAQ

Q: Does the metal can come with a protective cloth?

A: The package includes the rosin cake inside the metal can, but a separate polishing cloth is not included. We recommend using a soft cotton cloth for application.

Q: What is the shelf life of this product?

A: When stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, Kolstein rosin can last for many years without degrading in quality.

Q: Can this be used on a 3/4 size double bass?

A: Absolutely. This rosin is formulated for the double bass family regardless of size, including 3/4, 1/2, and full-size instruments.

Q: How does this compare to the Silver label version?

A: The Gold formula generally offers a bit more grip and a warmer tone compared to the Silver, which is slightly lighter and faster. Gold is preferred for heavier strings or cooler climates.

Q: Is this rosin suitable for extreme cold weather?

A: Yes, the Ultra Gold formula is designed as an all-season rosin, maintaining optimal grip and texture even in cold conditions.
