Kaplan KRDD Premium Dark Rosin with Case

D'Addario Kaplan Premium Dark Rosin

Extra Grip. Warm Tone. Low Dust. Made in the USA.

The D'Addario Kaplan Premium Dark Rosin gives violinists, violists, and cellists the extra grip they need for a warm, full, powerful sound. Made from the original Kaplan recipe handed down from Ladislav Kaplan, it applies evenly to bow hair and produces very little dust, so your instrument, strings, and hands stay cleaner.

From advancing students to seasoned players, Kaplan Premium Dark is a reliable everyday rosin you can count on at every rehearsal.

Dark Formula for Grip and Warmth

Dark rosins are softer and stickier than light rosins, so the bow grabs the string more easily for a rich, warm tone. That makes Kaplan Premium Dark a great choice for cello and viola, and for violinists who want more grip. It's especially helpful in cold, dry weather, when harder rosins can feel slippery. It works with both horsehair and synthetic bow hair.

A Case Designed for Players

Kaplan Premium comes in a sleek protective case designed for one-handed use, so you can rosin your bow without fumbling. A dial on the bottom lets you rotate the cake for even wear and prevents a groove from forming. When you're done, the case closes securely for clean, easy storage in your instrument case, and it helps protect the cake from breaking if it's dropped.
