Frequently Asked Questions

It’s well-regarded for its solid wood construction which often isn't found at this price point; other options may use laminated woods.
The natural resin varnish is relatively soft; careful handling and a good polish will help protect it, but it's not as robust as a harder, more expensive finish.
The hair is standard quality for a student bow; it will perform adequately but might need frequent re-rosining and will eventually need replacement for optimal playability.
