Leatherwood Amber Bespoke Bass Rosin offers a tailored rosin experience for double bassists. With a range of blends from 20% (hard and crisp) to 60% (soft and grippy), musicians can achieve the perfect balance of grip, traction, and tonal clarity. Ideal for soloists, orchestral players, and period musicians, this Australian-made rosin allows for custom mixing to refine performance.

The Amber Range’s rosin recipe chart offers an almost unlimited choice of recipe grades, ranging from hard rosins (similar to cello rosins) through to recipes that are very soft and sticky, with a helpful guide on how to choose the right recipe for your playing. By varying the recipe grade, Bass players can have more control over sound and response characteristics such as Grip, Traction, Lyrical Quality, and Powder Content.

The Amber Range only uses ingredients with low or no evaporative volatility, which means in normal playing circumstances* the rosin will not degrade over time. Normal playing circumstances means there is no exposure to extreme heat, cold or humidity. A ‘normal’ temperature range is considered 5°C - 25°C

The Amber Range is a comprehensive rosin system for Double Bass from Leatherwood Bespoke Rosin. This rosin is designed to help Double Bass players find the exact combination of stickiness, grip, traction & lyrical quality to suit their playing needs.

Different grades of rosin recipe can even be mixed on the bow for further enhancement. For example, a player might first apply the 35% grade as the ‘base recipe’, then occasionally add the 50% for extra grip.

20%-30% being a hard rosin excellent for solo and chamber music (considered more lyrical, with crisp clarity and articulate properties.
30%-40% is excellent for light orchestral work, where you still want that clarity but with more projection and a bit more stick
40%-50% is for the more heavy orchestral parts where you want more power & ‘stick’
50%-60% being a very soft rosin perfect for baroque work to grab those gut-strings with confidence)

The Amber Range has evolved over a 6 year period of trials and consultation with Bass players from all over the world, including players from Orchestras including the Berlin Philharmonic, London Philharmonic, New York Philharmonic and many others. We have worked with bass Orchestral bass players (professional, amateur, student, college), pedagogues, Jazz and improvisatory / experimental players, solo and chamber music players, and players of bowed electric bass. Our bass rosin recipes have journeyed through a whole spectrum of recipe formulations and ingredient varieties in order to meet the demands these players and their varying playing contexts. In order to comprehensively meet these demands, we now present the Amber Range, which brings together all of this research and consultation, offering Bass players a range of recipe choices, from very hard to very soft rosins, that can cater to differing playing needs, sound needs, grip strength and climactic conditions.
