Pirastro Goldflex Rosin for Violin and Viola

Goldflex Rosin for Violin and Viola

The Pirastro Gold Flex violin rosin is a premium light treatment for your violin or viola bow which maximizes your potential. This premium rosin gives you complete control of the bow, aiding a perfect sound. Pirastro developed this style of rosin for violins and violas, and its harder texture with added gold dust will complement your instrument's natural sound.

High quality rosin allows for perfect bowing without scratchy sounds, especially if only a thin layer of rosin is applied. The general rule is:

• violinists and violists use a harder, dryer rosin
• cellists use a medium strong rosin
• bassists a softer rosin

Another important aspect for choosing the right rosin is the core material of the string that are being used:

• steel strings are easier played if you use a hard, dry rosin
• for synthetic, gut and gut wound strings use a softer rosin
