Actually, if you have a synthetic wheel - liquid rosin is a necessity since
the cake rosin doesn't adhere to the wheel very well. Otherwise, yeah -
whatever the fiddle player brought. However, fiddle player's rosin tend to
be in small nuggets from being dropped repeatedly and broken into smaller
and smaller pieces. My fiddle case is full of these quarter sized chunks.

As a bassist, over the last 10 years, I've grown fond of "Pop's" brand of
rosin. Is there a group preference to what type of Rodin, which brand,
and the pros and cons of folid vs liquid, this I'd love to know the
difference.
