Posted by alfapolaris on Tuesday, June 25, 2013

so i am a beginning fiddle player.

i have a  1989 scherle and roth violin and it's ok (i suppose)

i need a better bow >

 

i know everyone will say i need to play them to decide

but i am interested in what others may choose and why.

so......

if you were regulated to an island for and extended period

and could bring a bow for your fiddle

-WHICH COSTS $100.00 OR UNDER-

what would you chose to bring?

 

PRIZES AWARDED TO ANY AND ALL WHO WEIGH IN ON THIS TOPIC!.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(prizes include :

                              .eternal gratitude

                               sincere appreciation

                               AND a special top prize :

                               the warm feeling of  musical kinship for imparting wisdom to the

                               less accomplished player.

 

thank you

I would find either a quality used carbon fiber bow or one that is on sale for $100... islands are humid places and wood bows go soft quickly...

Play Happy

I think a compound bow would be very helpful to shoot down coconuts. Careful, though, coconuts can be vicious if wounded.

Carbon fiber bow sounds good to me.

Supposedly Shar Music will ship you bows to try out, you pick one, buy it and send the rest back.

They supposedly also have house-brand economy carbon fiber bows that are pretty good and pretty cheap.

thank you swing
thank you boxbow
thank you fiddlepogo
you each are awarded all three prizes

carbon fiber seems to be the general consensus
( which pretty much coincides what i was thinking.)
your thoughts and opinions are appreciated

thank you
