Amazing for the price

Pros: Lightweight and easy to control

Cons: None

Other: I've been using this bow about 3 months now, and I love it. I bought it as an upgrade for the starter bow that came with my violin. It's light, feels well balanced and easy to control, and has improved my bowing massively.

A good intermediate bow from an efficient supplier
0 out of 2 found the following review helpful

Pros: Nicely balanced bow, good feel, good quality. It replaces a bow that came with the cheap violin I've been using, but this new carbon fibre bow has made a big difference to my sound, even using the same cheap violin! The String Zone's service is exceptional. I couldn't believe how fast it was, and how quickly I received my bow after placing my order online. The packaging was very efficient and I was super-impressed with the company and its service.

Cons: It's quite expensive, but on the whole worth it. When you tension the bow, the hairs seem much closer to the 'wood' than they were on my old bow. Just something to get used to, I think.

Other: Please see my comments on the exceptionally efficient service provided by this company.

What a difference a bow makes!
0 out of 3 found the following review helpful

Pros: Well balanced Produces a good tone This was a Christmas present so have only just started playing with it but it seems an all round improvement on my previous beginners bow. I play folk and dance tunes and my playing feels much more positive

Cons: none

Other: I have needed to use a lot of rosin initially as the bow was slipping on the strings after a couple of tunes but is now improving and staying on
