Arcos Brasil - GOLD Fitted Pernambuco Cello Bow

Weight: 80.8g, Balance: 9 1/8"


Weight: 80.8g, Balance: 9 1/8"

Maker: V. Schaeffer

This punchy bow makes projection easy, as its tone is focused and bright. It pulls out a lot of sound without much work. When dialed back, it becomes delicate, allowing the cello to sing beautifully whilst adding color to the sound. Spicatto is no problem for this bow; it produces crisp articulations. This bow is ideal for warm cellos that need assistance in pulling more sound out while still maintaining warmth. In the hand this bow feels very smooth, allowing for a consistent contact point.

Stamp: V. Schaeffer

Round stick, gold winding, gold mounted, pernambuco
