Arcos Brasil - Master Copy 'Peccatte' Gold Fitted Pernambuco Cello Bow

Weight: 79.4g, Balance: 9 5/16"

Maker: V. Schaeffer

With smooth tracking and a sweet and malleable tone, this bow is sure to perform under a skilled hand. When pushed in demanding passages, this bow creates a punchy, focused, and clear tone, easily projecting and filling a room. Delicate passages are not a problem as this bow is flexible, allowing for a lot of character to shine through at softer dynamics.The stick of this bow is flexible, allowing the player to grip the string nicely and easily pull a full and resonant sound out of the instrument. This bow would be best suited for a bright cello in need of more tonal colors to play with.

Stamp: V. Schaeffer

Round stick, gold & silver tinsel winding, gold mounted, pernambuco

Vanderson Schaeffer, son of Floriano Schaeffer decided to enter the family business of bow making, following in his father's footsteps. Schaeffer learned bow making techniques from his father and continued on to study briefly with Pierre Guillaume of Brussels. He currently works for the Brazilian firm Arcos Brasil as one of their top bow makers and is responsible for making many of their special edition bows and master copies.
