"I bought the Pirastro rosin as an extra to keep at home for practicing but I have to say, it's very fine and smooth."
"Yes, it's a lot more expensive but it lasts a long time so I am pleased with the purchase."
"It doesnt seem to like playing very soft and quiet, but its also highly probable its me doing something wrong."
"I've tried several rosins in the less than $30.00 camp."
"Very nice rosin, although I suppose being a beginner I am not really qualified to say, but I noticed a small difference from when I was using cheap rosin."
"Used this for violin playing, after using cheap stuff all these years this rosin is a sea change from what I used to use, very happy with purchase."
"Gave a nice clear bright sound compared to the Kaplan rosin I was using before."

"While rosin is more of a personal preference to each person, I can say that my daughter considers this GREAT rosin for the cello."
"I was using a cheap off-brand rosin, and I can tell the difference between that, and this rosin."
"I've been playing the Violin for about 5 years, but I've never bought my own rosin, so I'm not really an expert on the quality."
"So, I have been searching for the best rosin to best achieve that deep, rich kind of tone from my viola, and I must say, after about six different rosins and a long time of waiting for this one to ship, I am extremely pleased with how well this gets the tone I wanted, and now have."
"From an absolute beginner, this rosin seems to work better than the one included with the violin rental."
"Read a lot of reviews about various rosins."
"Johnson string instrument has also sent with it a magasin of other products on sale."

The rosin itself gives much finer and smoother texture, thus helps me to move bow across different strings quite effortlessly. So at the end of the practice, I found that I could concentrate more on the finger movement, without being annoyed by weird and tough noise generated from bow side."
"9005) which is also a good rosin, but Andrea Cello Solo Rosin proved itself to be supeior in quality and sound delivery. Update (Feb 20, 2013): Using the misfortune of the first Andrea rosin braking, I've tried new rosins and used what I had on hand as mentioned above. An Andrea rosin had been in my Amzon's "purchase later" list, and I could use a larger broken piece if I wanted; besides, I was trying out different rosin to see if I can find a better and more economical alternative to the Andrea's. (As you can see, the Andrea's rosin is more expensive than the others.)."
"Amazing!!"
"This stuff is spectacular."
"So far I already see a difference with this rosin, leaves less white dust on strings and sound is improved...definitely the best rosin I've ever used."
"Noticed a difference immediately after switching to this rosin."

"Not sur3 about his stuff, might be me or the product i recieved, but this is very difficult to transfe4 to the bow."
"Pop's upright bass rosin is very sticky/soft."
"He said that this was the right rosin for the bass he plays in orchestra."
"It was either old or stored improperly, and I have since ordered a fresh cake from another source."
"So soft that it'll melt in heat and shift position in the container if you set it at an angle, but that's how you know it's Pops."
"It seems dry all the time and I live in southern California near the ocean."
"This rosin isn't fresh."
