Fishman V-100 Classic Series Violin Pickup Review

I agree that attaching this type of pickup is awkward at best, but the quality of the sound is excellent for a pickup at this price (you really need a high quality microphone for true sound reproduction, which has its own issues).This price is very reasonable, but if you want to spend a little more Fishman also makes a model with a clamp-on 1/4" jack that I imagine is much easier to use.

D' Addario Natural Dark Rosin Review

In the product info section it says "produces less dust". well that's not really true it produces plenty of dust. If you want rossin that won't make dust get jade rossin. Other than the whole dust thing it's pretty good stuff and the plastic grip on the outside is excellent.

"Wristies" Hand Warming Practice Gloves - Short Length for Large Hands: Black Review

There are two types of Wristies--regular and heated (which have a pocket that holds a heat packet).The description of this product as being "hand warming" led me to believe this was the "heated" type.It is NOT...and the company does not offer the heated type.The company was clearly not trying to mislead, but somebody who knew there were two types of Wristies might be confused, as I was.

Wittner 15.5" - 16.5" Viola Ultra Composite Tailpiece with 4-tuners and Nylon Tailgut Review

Beautifully made using latest high-tech materials make this tailpiece lighter than any other I have tried. This provided a small but noticable improvement in the voice of my instrument. Also it was easy to get the afterlenght just right with this part so I am pleased in all respects. Well worth the price. The only thing that could make it better and kept me from giving five stars is a minor redesign allowing a bar for the strings to rest on between the adjusters and the nut would keep the string lengths uniform and prevent minor voice changes as the fine tuners move through their range.

Still, very much worth the price and light, attractive, and good sounding. I am well pleased.

p.s. I have Wittner Ultras on my violin and cello as well and the same apply to them as the above for my viola.

The Original Bernadel Rosin Review

This rosin is a very ancient rosin. It is very light but effective. As with any rosin after you are done playing clean it off your strings and instrument. It makes your bow more.....I cant really describe it except it is great. INDESCRIBABLE! I have had mine for three years, never had a problem with it. You could find it cheaper at a local musical instrument store, but if no one has one around you then just save a dime a day in a jar. But, I am one of millions of string players. IT DEPENDS ON YOUR CLIMATE! I live in a west texas climate and it works perfectly. My cousin in Florida didnt like it, but when she moved to cleveland in the summer she used it and used it alot. So HOPE THIS HELPS! 4 stars since it depends on YOUR CLIMATE!
