This bow has a softer, flexible stick that lends itself to balanced legato playing and easy changes at both the frog and tip. In bouncing bow strokes, this bow gravitates toward a more rounded spiccato, though a crisp, clear sautillé can still be achieved. This bow is suitable for the advancing player who prefers a more supple and flexible response in their playing.

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.
