W.E. Hill & Sons Premium Double Bass Rosin (Dark)
The W.E. Hill & Sons Premium Double Bass Rosin is an exceptional choice for advanced and professional bassists seeking optimum levels of control and tonal warmth. Crafted in the United Kingdom using a unique historic recipe of colophony blended with natural oils, each cake is painstakingly hand-mixed and hand-poured according to traditional artisanal methods.
While most double bass rosins rely on high stickiness that can make attack imprecise, the Hill Premium formula boasts a specialized #7 Grip Profile Rating. It balances a powerful frictional initial grip with a uniquely controlled, clean release, allowing for superb articulation and a wide dynamic range without choking the strings. This medium-soft formulation performs consistently across all weather and climates. The large 25g cake is encased in a solid Maplewood holder etched with the historic W.E. Hill & Sons logo, and comes complete with a color-matched drawstring bag and protective presentation tube.
