Hidersine cello rosin 3C Rosin, in clothHidersine 3C cello rosin is - just like the corresponding violin variants - certainly the "standard" for rosins all over the world. The 3C (Medium Cake) from Hidersine has become the standard among cellists thanks to its balanced feel and playability. This slightly amber-coloured rosin offers a high degree of grip for the bow hairs on the cello strings thanks to its harder properties. It is slightly more forgiving to beginners, yet allows advanced players to articulate dynamic highs and lows.It is worth noting that "light/hard" cello rosin is slightly softer than the equivalent "light/hard" violin rosin, as the larger strings of the cello require a slightly softer starting point to achieve the same level of grip. Made to a historic recipe by Francis Hider, Hidersine 3C rosins have set the bar for cello rosins for decades, and they are still made in England in the same way: the artisanal process of mixing and moulding by hand.
