I'm not a melbourner, but it's pretty cheap and looks pretty international.

I like pops, but it built up what i can only describe as 'gunge', although I believe 'smegma' is the official term, on my bow hair.

I switched to Carlsons and haven't looked back - the grip of nymnas, but without that magical 'disappearing' ability that nymans has while playing (i was re-rosining every 20 mins with nymans).

If you don't mind paying a few extra bucks for some really fresh stuff, definitely check out bassrosin.com. The freshest pops you'll find anywhere.

i went from pops which i now realize was horrible (IMO) to carlsons, and i was like wow its amazing, what a difference. Then my teacher had me use his kolstein rosin, and it was like dejavous, another big difference. you should try checking out something other than pops... it really beat the crap outta my bow.
