This bow offers a rich, open sound with good playability. It sits in the string well to give an immediate attack in staccato strokes and a sense of stability in legato playing. Spiccato playing feels ‘springy’ and rounded, and sautillé has the most clarity and control just above the bow’s middle. This is a great bow for players tackling the upper grades of their instrument examinations, or those playing repertoire with similar demands.
At Simply for Strings, each bow is hand-selected to exacting criteria, including examining the hair, camber of the bow and the bow’s ability and sound across different techniques.
Please note, each bow is unique and handcrafted – your new bow may look slightly different to the photograph used.
