Violin and Cello Bows


Bows for our stringed instruments.


Bows

We try to find a suitable bow for each client.
We have old French and German bows and excellent Chinese silver mounted bows.

We offer a discount when a bow is bought with an instrument.

Did you know that each bow produces a certain harmonic series? Sometimes, when we are dissatisfied with our instrument, the problem can be that the bow being used may not suit the instrument.

While players are testing our instruments we like them first to use one of our bows: then we ask them to compare the sound with that of their own bow: usually they are rather surprised.

Each player needs a bow which compliments their instrument:
one that produces the right harmonic series, comfortable in weight and balance.

Usually it is best to choose the instrument before choosing a bow.

Bows may need straightening or respringing to make them work well: this is another of our specialities.

 

Guarantee

Every instrument is guaranteed to be fit for purpose.
Should any subsequent deterioration occur it will be put right without charge.

Exceptions to this:
accidental damage;
deterioration caused by over-use of central heating;

Any instrument we sell can be traded in when making a future purchase.
