59 customers mention "Sound quality"57 positive2 negative

Customers like the sound quality of the picks. They say the tone is divine and it makes their cello sing. The picks are fantastic for reducing string noise because they are low friction. Some find that it improves their tone but not much.

"...Cons: • Price • Bright sound • Almost no dust flying from a good rosined bow • The quality and the whole package •..." Read more

"...She noticed immediately that it sounded better. She was amazing that rosin can do that. Highly recommended." Read more

"...upon rosining my bow to prepare for the battle I noticed it's otherworldly quality, then I tested my newfound blade!..." Read more

"...Thus, out comes the rosin. This is the finest rosin I've discovered to date for this purpose. I'll pass on the Gorilla Snot." Read more

32 customers mention "Dust level"24 positive8 negative

Customers like the low dust level of the rosin. It grips well and leaves little residue. They say it goes on smoothly, plays well, and wipes off strings easily.

"...Since it makes less dust, my violin is cleaner and the strings are less mucked up in rosin...." Read more

"...She liked the color. Said it left residue dust on the violin body that needed a good wiping to clean...." Read more

"...Almost no squeaking, good grip, nice tone, and very little dust left on the instrument. You won’t regret this purchase." Read more

Customers find the rosin easy to apply. It goes on smoothly and doesn't powder up the instrument. They say it grips the bow well and gives good sound from the first note.

"...that I rubbed the surface with a nail file to make it easier to get on the bow, or that the rosin and cloth it's wrapped in as well as it's pouch..." Read more

"...It is easy to use and applies smoothly and evenly. It does last longer on the bow than the first one. It doesn't create excessive dust...." Read more

"My violin teacher recommended this to me and it works well. Easy to use!" Read more

"...Both love it. Common feedback is "its soft and easy to rosin the bow"..." Read more

23 customers mention "Grip"19 positive4 negative

Customers appreciate the grip of the rosin. It adheres well to the bow hairs and stays stuck to the cloth, making it easy to hold and wrap. The microfiber cloth makes it easy to apply in all directions.

"...I can’t believe the difference. Almost no squeaking, good grip, nice tone, and very little dust left on the instrument...." Read more

"...It doesn't create excessive dust. It is grippier than either of the first two. That will take a bit of getting used to, but I think I'll like it...." Read more

"...picks are fantastic for reducing string noise because they are so low friction, but grip is certainly compromised. Thus, out comes the rosin...." Read more

"...It makes much less dust, wipes off strings easily, is plenty grippy (though I may still have some hill rosin the bow), but it plays smoother with..." Read more

21 customers mention "Value for money"21 positive0 negative

Customers find the rosin good value for money. They say it's an expensive solution to achieving a better tone and has a grip on the strings without being too much.

"...A very inexpensive way to do better, and it's pretty enough to gift to the violin player in your life." Read more

"...If you're looking for an affordable rosin that enhances your sound beautifully (who isn't?) then by all means, order Bernardel!" Read more

20 customers mention "Color"20 positive0 negative

Customers like the color of the product. They say it looks like the picture shown, the pouch looks nice, and the bow strings have a smooth finish. The dark blue velvet pouch is very pretty and adds to the overall appearance. It's perfect for Evah Pirazzi green with not an expensive bow.

"I love the bag that the rising comes in with." Read more

"I literally don’t know if there are any cons, it’s just perfect for Evah Pirazzi green with not an expensive bow. Cons: • Price •..." Read more

"...'s just a thing that I would rather avoid personally because the pouch looks nice although they could probably save money and make it slightly..." Read more

    After growing to detest my old rosin, I decided it was time to kick it to the curb. A friend told me about this rosin and said she really liked it. I can’t believe the difference. Almost no squeaking, good grip, nice tone, and very little dust left on the instrument. You won’t regret this purchase.

    Reviewed in the United States on July 21, 2024
    Verified Purchase
    Absolutely thrilled with this rosin and the customer service provided by this company. The first rosin I order arrived in pieces thanks to the US Postal Service so I had to send it back. When the return was noted, the company reached out to me instantly to see if they go do anything do "make it right". Clearly, it was not their fault but their attention to customer satisfaction is outstanding. I love this rosin! It has really helped me with better bow control. My cello teacher suggested it and now everyone in our music studio is using it and are very happy with it.

    I bought rosin from a well know company for my daughter as a beginner. I then bought this rosin as recommended by her teacher. She tried it one time and she thought I changed out her strings. I told her I didn't, they are the same strings that came with the viola. She noticed immediately that it sounded better. She was amazing that rosin can do that. Highly recommended.

    The description and picture said it has orange color and light.
    But I ve got red and dark one. It probably is for winter. I disappointed, but I have no time for replacement. So I just use and its quality is good.
    But if you need summer, I mean light yellowish orange one, please check.

    Reviewed in the United States on January 18, 2017
    Verified Purchase
    PROS:

    I could tell you in a normal way that this rosin reduced my scratchiness a lot, and made my playing smoother, that I rubbed the surface with a nail file to make it easier to get on the bow, or that the rosin and cloth it's wrapped in as well as it's pouch are very nice...... however.....

    Let me tell you a tale, long, long ago..... about yesterday, I was using the student quality rosin that came with my violin. In preparation for the coming of my new rosin, I cleaned my bow hair by loosening it a bit and brushing it with a soft bristle toothbrush, er.... I mean I steeled myself for combat! Today from the sky came the orange stone of resonance, (this Bernardel Rosin!) upon rosining my bow to prepare for the battle I noticed it's otherworldly quality, then I tested my newfound blade! My scratchy sounds from my rusty old sword (student rosin) were no more, and now I am ready to practice once again, all in order to....(Learn to play the violin well!) FORGE AHEAD TO THE HALLOWED HALLS OF VALHALLA!

    CONS: My violin case's storage spot with the little door is too small with it in the pouch, so I put it under my violin neck. Although it fits if I fold the pouch. I don't know if this will cause creases in the pouch or not, but that's just a thing that I would rather avoid personally because the pouch looks nice although they could probably save money and make it slightly cheaper if the pouch was smaller as it would require less materials. I don't believe this is enough to remove a star though.
