You've probably noticed that the cheapest bows available for violins can't always compete with the highest quality ones. The violin is only half the story. In order to make the most out of your new violin, you should buy a high-quality bow. This article will discuss the various materials used to make bows: Metal cables, tropical hardwood, Mongolian Horsehair, and many others.
Takedown model
There are several factors that determine the price of a takedown bow. First of all, the bow must be unstrung before you can store it, and then it will take up more space when it is reassembled. If you are looking for a way to store your bow without buying separate storage boxes, the takedown-recurve is a great option. These bows are easy to assemble without the need for tools.
Tropical hardwood
There are many types of wood that can be used to make tropical hardwood bows. The most expensive option is red oak. You should be cautious when working with it. To avoid this problem, look for late-growth rings that are relatively thick and that have less bristle than the younger growth rings. You can also make your own hardwood bow using the tips above, if you have a limited budget.
Metal cables
Compound bows have high-modulus, polyethylene (HMP), strings and cables. These cables have very low stretch and high tensile power. Steel cables were long the most used type of bow cable. PSE used teardrops for several years as they were believed to be more efficient. This type of cable, however, is not as durable and can easily crack.
Mongolian horsehair
When it comes to the quality of Mongolian horsehair bows, the best one is usually the cheapest. Horsetail quality can range from thin and straight to curly and thick. It is vital to know the sorter that was used to select the hair. One supplier may have a "best Mongolian mare stallion". Another might have something completely different. Top bow makers will often buy unsorted hanks for less and then have them sorted by themselves.
Carbon fiber
You should consider purchasing a carbon fiber bow for your violin. Carbon fiber is lightweight and stiff so it won't cause damage to your violin's string. It also has the advantage of minimizing stick curve deformation. Carbon fiber is a great material for bows because it doesn't shrink or contract like wood and isn't affected by temperature and humidity.
Bows that have been used
A used bow can be a great way to save money on a high-quality instrument. Many models are still available for sale in good condition and at very low prices. Before you purchase one, there are several factors to consider. You should first consider the cost of tuning your bow. If you can afford to spend a few extra dollars on this, it is a good idea. Care of the bow is another important consideration.
