The firm of Otto Durrschmidt was established in Markneukirchen in 1894 and members of the family still work in the workshop today. Bows for keen students onward.
Quality student bow in selected pernambuco. Made in the finest tradition of German workshops, recommended for progressing students and keen amateur players.

Great bow for a fiddler on a budget.
Pros: Good balance, feels comfortable to hold, it is agile, and above all, I can pull a powerful tone from my fiddles with it, no matter what strings I'm using (gut, synthetic, metal) Excellent price for a bow of this quality, and when you consider the VAT within the price, it becomes even more remarkable!
Cons: Can't think of any negatives at all.
Other: Great service from The String Zone as always.

Pros: I have had a Durrschmidt for about 35 years and I have loved having it. I saw that String Zone were selling them so bought myself a new Octagonal stick version. I love how they handle and the weight is right for me.
Cons: None
Other: Excellent service from String Zone as usual. The bow was well packaged and arrived very quickly.
