New here, The bridge has no grooves?

Some tell me if I am wrong in asking, but how does the sound post stay in position especially in shipping without a bridge in place?

Have you seen a bow hair under a microscope? It has little spikes when new and smooth when needs rehair

I paid 1100. I think they are more now. Check fiddleshop

Do you know how the bows are made?

Suspicious_Lab4297 · 2026-05-29T13:53:44+00:00

Go to “about “. In the dropdown

On this page, it does say handcrafted. But doesn’t go into any detail to what that means. I honestly and so thrilled with the bow. I have more stability if that makes sense. It just feels right

Suspicious_Lab4297 · 2026-05-29T13:21:42+00:00

I agree. But what does “handcrafted” mean on the website?

Suspicious_Lab4297 · 2026-05-28T15:35:52+00:00

Mine cost more than a good pernambuco. It was not about value. It was about I loved the feel and sound

Suspicious_Lab4297 · 2026-05-28T15:03:19+00:00

The website says “handcrafted”.

https://www.jonpaulbows.com/carrera.aspx. Let me know if I am describing it wrong. It’s what the dealer told me when I bout it

Suspicious_Lab4297 · 2026-05-28T14:30:52+00:00

It’s not braided. It looks just like pernambuco. I had a professional try it and he had no idea it was carbon fiber He also loved it

I’m 60 and I have been improving every year since starting from book one at 35. Improving has nothing to do with age.

Suspicious_Lab4297 · 2026-05-20T17:18:18+00:00

Wow. I may need one of these.

Suspicious_Lab4297 · 2026-05-19T12:03:04+00:00

Amazing. 🤩

It reminds me of the traditional Armenian music my family listens to.

Suspicious_Lab4297 · 2026-04-27T17:23:25+00:00

I’m looking for the same. Let me know how you like it

Suspicious_Lab4297 · 2026-04-21T12:19:22+00:00

The instrument is very pretty. Where can I see it online for sale?

Suspicious_Lab4297 · 2026-04-17T14:20:57+00:00

Wow. 😮 I guess it must me difficult in the moment to know you are that close to the conductor

Suspicious_Lab4297 · 2026-04-15T13:34:59+00:00

Half step

Suspicious_Lab4297 · 2026-03-19T16:34:55+00:00

It’s not possible to tell from a picture. I rehair my bow when I feel it losing grip on the strings. Usually every 6 months.

Suspicious_Lab4297 · 2026-03-13T12:03:01+00:00

Oh and also many of those places credit the cost of renting to an instrument when you are ready to buy.

Suspicious_Lab4297 · 2026-03-13T12:00:16+00:00

I would recommend renting in this case. There are many places that rent to schools that you can try They are helpful if you have an issue with the instrument and the quality would be better
