Baroque instrument testimonials:
- “I am already totally hooked on this new rosin! I used the crisp variety for my recording on gut strings... It made a huge difference to the variety of articulations I could achieve and helped me produce a gorgeous tone for the microphones... you have changed my life!”
- “I was surprised by the first stroke, in which I can feel the hair “connects” tightly with the strings, and this proximity helps the strings to vibrate quite differently - better than before...I feel the sound is more focused and deeper than before. A very enjoyable experience playing with LBR; thank you!”
