Viotti Carbon Fiber Violin Bow, Hand Crafted by Professional Violin & Bow Makers, Strong, Stiff & Well Balanced, Made with Mongolian Horse Hair, For Violinists & Fiddlers of All Skill Levels

Nice, light weight sturdy bow

This one made a world of difference in playability and sound in my practice. Very nice and not to heavy as with many carbon fiber products of similar design. Highly recommend it for your student violinist. Great value for the price.

Very nicely made, durable. Plays well.

I give this bow a 4. It's well made and straight. The packaging was superb. I live in Alabama where the heat and humidity ruins bows before delivery. I've only been playing the violin about a year, so this may be a personal issue, but you can see my old bow on bottom and this one next to the fancy box it came in. If you zoom in, you can see the tip of the frog that touches your thumb is a little more squarred off Perhaps, it's my grip but it just wasn't quite as comfortable as my old one. Plus, the sound isn't quite as warm as my old bow and it's also a little stiffer. This is definitely an excellent bow for the price. My old bow came with my violin so I don't know how it compares price wise.

I've only been playing violin a few months but the Glasser bow that came with my Yamaha V5 student outfit is really subpar, even for a beginner bow (it is mostly plastic). While looking for a replacement, I came across the Viotti bow here on Amazon and, after reading the reviews, decided to give it a go. It arrived this morning and I've already applied the rosin and run through a practice session. I have to say, the sound it produces is quite nice (I'm new to violin but not music studies in general). As for bow hold, it's very easy to get a proper grip on it and it slides nicely across the strings, unlike my Glasser bow, which feels unwieldy no matter how I hold it. The Viotti bow feels far more balanced and natural in the hand, in comparison. To top it off, it looks stunning! I love all the mother of pearl on it.

My firsy bow. Seems nice. Thought it was broken until my teacher told me about rosin. Love the sound I get from it

This comes in a great box that my daughter refuses to get rid of even though her bow is in her case. It is even nicer than I thought, and it has great sound for the amount of money I paid for it.

Is this the best quality bow on the market? No. Does it work decently well? Yes. For the money spent, I really can’t complain. It isn’t overly heavy, fairly well balanced, and if paired with a quality rosin, it doesn’t sound terrible. I’m definitely saving up for a better bow for performances, but this will do for now - and then will behind a not too bad practice/back up option.

Arco de gran calidad, con muy buena proyección al usarlo

El arco solo ha durado 6 meses... estoy totalmente enojada...

I ordered this bow as I needed a second bow for my violin. Received a damaged bow severely and it was a very difficult process to get a resolution.

One of the best Bow I have ever used

Superb Product with superb performance
