Your input is very much appreciated. Share it with your friends so they can enjoy it too!
Even more balanced than carbon fiber bow and a smoother sound. Can’t imagine how much better the best bow is. I’m a beginner but I can appreciate this bow. I didn’t think I was good enough to tell a difference. Buy the best Holstein bow you can afford!
The hair on it is really nice, but this performs about as well as other bows in its price range. Has a nice tone on my violin, but so does the one I have. Just different. I maybe should have gone with the 2 star, but this is just because me and my wife needed another bow and figured one of us would like this as well as what we have which is the case.
Madison says she likes the feel and play ability of it so far...only had it 3 weeks to date. She also said it seems to be lighter in hand than her carbon fibre bow that she has from your shop. Let you know of any further updates that might occur. Thanks, Pierre, Jeff. (her Grandpa)
