Melos Rosin Cello Dark grips the strings harder than their Cello Light product, offering strong and full-tone sound qualities, without any unexpected noises or dust, in all kinds of bowing techniques. This cake is designed to efficiently deliver high, medium and low wave frequencies and is specially produced to endure low temperatures, during autumn or winter.
 
Each and every rosin cake is made exclusively by hand. Minor deformities are corollaries of the natural origin of the ingredients used and the handmade process, without using any kind of machinery that could potentially lower our products’ quality.
 
Melos Rosin is a family-run company founded in 2003 in Thessaloniki, Greece.
Melos’ vision was to offer pure, high-quality rosins for string instruments, accessible to everyone. A handmade, fresh cake that enhances one’s skills and ultimately broadens their creative process. Over the years, they did our best to live up to this commitment.
Now, 20 years later, they proudly look back and make sure to keep on delivering the highest standard.
After several experiments and thorough tests with different strings, instrument bodies, and temperatures, Melos rosins are designed to deliver under any condition. The key to their recipes is the raw material. Melos use Greek pine-tree resin and colophony combined with the finest ingredients, handpicked by local suppliers. These ingredients ensure a fresh, natural, and fine rosin that meets the highest expectation.
Part of their vision is also to remain respectful towards the environmental crisis and stay aware of our footprint.
In 2023 Melos designed an 100% recyclable, eco-friendly, and anti-pollution packaging and minimized their impact.
