MandShef Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Hi, just curious where you folks buy your bass rosin? Even though I'm city based, no local shops supply it, so I'm forced to buy online. But even then it can be a hassle. I recently ordered some Carlsson from DJM Music, only to be told 3 weeks later that it's out of stock and they won't get any more 'til later in November. Rung them to change my order to Nymans, but that was also out of stock. Tried String Zone, who were also out of stock for Nymans, but I was able to order some Carlsson. Fingers crossed it'll come within the week. But it got me wondering whether anyone can recommend a reliable and quick online shop that sells bass rosin?

hubrad Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 We have Pops and Super-Sensitive Clarity hypoallergenic in at the mo.. link below. :-) I mostly use Pops myself, so try to keep that one around as much of the time as possible. Just in case. Others crop up as and when possible depending on who we're ordering with at the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm trying to move away from using it though, as it seems to clag the bow up with it's super sticky consistency! I'm trying to find somewhere I can get stuff like Carlsson, Nyman's, Kolstein to try as an alternative. I'll take a look at your link though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BanditSid Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 I have used Petz for over 35 years, creature of habit, I usually source it on Ebay when I need it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owencf Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 I use Nyman's bass rosin, it does not make much in the way of dust, quite hard and gives a decent bite. I got mine from Thomann when i picked up a few other bits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
