violin bows

Violin bows vary in weight from about 55 - 74 grams, with the "normal" range being 59 - 64 grams.

The balance point is measured from the end of the adjustment screw, and the normal range is between 255 and 280mm.

Length is usually close to 750mm

We encourage 5 string violin players to also look at our viola bows, the extra power can be very useful on a 5 string!
