Artino Select Series Carbon Graphite Violin Bow 4/4 Size

Needed new bow, what I had found were heavy and difficult to control, this bow light weight easy to control, has good sound. Would buy again.

My daughters and granddaughter loves the Artino Select Series Bows. They are priced reasonable, and all of their music teachers love and approve of them. I've tried two other brands but the kids and their teachers didn't like any of them. Actually, they talked really bad about them. My feelings were a little hurt, because I thought more expensive was better, not so! Now I just stick the Artino Select Series brand bows for now on.

First off, this tiny bow came in a HUGE box. The bow was just in a plastic sleeve and not secure. The tape was barely holding the box together. I am surprised the bow didn't fall out during shipping. There was just crumpled up paper as padding during shipping. The bow is super thin and not sturdy as most carbon fiber bows. Its black, not brown as the pic showed. Half the horse hair is busted because it was not shipped in the correct fashion. Very dissatisfied!!!

Purchased for my daughter for a violin that was given to her by a friend.. It arrived on time and was packaged extremely well to avoid any damage..Great for a beginner..

It's a good bow but it didn't look like the picture. I was expecting a brown color, but it ended up being black. Oh well, brown fiddle black bow... whatever.

The bow has nice balance and exhibits good quality construction. I like the bow, but was slightly surprised by the weight. It's a little weightier then my wood bow, which was somewhat surprising. This is not a limiting factor or a slight, it's just a fact.
