Overview
D'Addario Light Rosin is an all-natural rosin formulated for violin, viola and cello bows and packaged in a hard plastic channel for easy grip and tidy storage. Designed with students and everyday players in mind, this light rosin provides a clear, focused grip on the bow hair without the heavy dust and darker tonal coloration of dark rosin.

Backed by D'Addario's long history in musician accessories, it balances performance, convenience and value for beginners through intermediate players.
