Question Scratchy?

Well, if they are old or the bow not rosined maybe it will skip and scratch. The 92 G is usually the smoothest darkest one of the group. The Orig. G is the one I find to be brighter and scratchy at times. The D is ok but always preferred the 92 for smoothness. Maybe it's a tension match with your Bass.
