Light and powerful, agile and rugged, nimble and steady, flexible and tough - the new L-series bows unite qualities that you can normally not find in one bow.

The first thing you might notice about the L5 bow is the elegant snakewood frog. Next, perhaps the timeless and indestructible stainless steel fittings. But the real fun comes when it shows what it can do in terms of sound. It plays two tiers above its cost: colourful, clear, powerful and capable of wide modulation. Strictly speaking, no musician needs more than this, and in its price range it's the champion anyway.

Compared to the Arcus bows, the L-bows are of similar weight. However, they are more flexible and therefore more forgiving in their playing style, at the expense of a bit less precision and sheer power.

Müsing

German Carbon Craftsmanship

Founded by Bernd Müsing in Würzburg, Germany, Müsing has been researching and refining string bows since 1995. Every Müsing stick is made from three-dimensionally woven carbon fiber, shaped into a thin hollow tube that vibrates freely for a clear, colorful sound. The result is a bow that’s lighter, stronger and completely unaffected by humidity, with the balance and comfort to carry you through long rehearsals and performances. From students to seasoned professionals, players choose Müsing for a bow they can rely on, so they can focus on the music.
