A carbon fibre cello bow

A carbon fibre cello bow

Carbon fiber cello bow £180

Item code VCB4

This bow has a round carbon fibre weave stick, nickel silver mounting, abalone slide and flower inlay, and an ebony frog.

It's medium weight at 83 grams, and the weight is well balanced with a balance point of 250mm.

Carbon fiber bows usually have superior handling and inferior tone to wooden bows of the same price. They also tend to be over light, especially at the tip.

This bow has the excellent fast and stable handling typical of good carbon bows, but also has a little more weight and somewhat livelier tone than other carbon bows we have tried. The tone is about equivalent to wooden bows we have at a similar price.
