Average Reviews:

I would not recommend buying this bow. When it came in the mail the wood was warped so much that it wasn't even close to being straight. On top of that it was cracked right in the middle. You're better off buying something else.

Glaesel GL-2213-4 4/4 Brazilwood Violin Bow Review

Glaesel GL-2213-4 4/4 Brazilwood Violin Bow
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I bought this to replace my old low-budget bow, and it's been a success in every way. It's smooth, draws a nice tone, and feels good in the hand. My only complaint is Musician's Friend's shipping department almost killed it- it was loose inside a very large box. It's just lucky that it wasn't damaged. Ordinarily they are an excellent vendor, so hopefully this was just a bad day for the shipping dept. The bow itself is an excellent value and gets a big thumbs-up.
Don't use the usual junky old box rosin; spend a few bucks more on a good-quality cake rosin.

This isn't something that comes with a Strat, obviously... but you do get what you pay for, and the quality of this bow was excellent. I've used a fiberglass bow the past 20 years of my life, so I was very surprised and impressed by the balance of this wood bow.
Thanks!!!

I had 3/4 of a ship in my back yard. So I found this for sale advertising "4/4" for the bow size. I'm thinking, "Hurray, the missing piece to make my 3/4 of a ship, 4/4!" So this arrives. I'm shocked. I shrug my shoulders an attach it to the front anyway. Immediately after cast off my ship sunk into my back yard. My dog had been on board at the time. This product is great for killing your dog on a ship. It's also a great violin bow.

Very nice bow. After two months of being "lightly" used, the wood at the tip split, what a shame. I think there was a flaw or a weak point in the grain of the wood. I contacted the company, and they had a replacement at my door within just a few days!

Average Reviews:

It's okay... nothing fancy. Adequate, does a good job, except not so well in really cold weather because of the lack of humidity in the air (my current problem). So, I'm getting a stickier rosin. It is definitely worth its price, although it may not be worth the cost of shipping.

Bow-Right for Violin, Medium (1/2-1/4 Violin) Review

Bow-Right for Violin, Medium (1/2-1/4 Violin)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I am wondering if the other reviewer actually tried this item?
I used this on both my kids and it worked for both of them. I did previously try the pencils, the straws and even pipe cleaners.
The problem with those other alternatives:
The straws BEND and fall out, and the pencils are so rigid they do not fit into the f-holes properly AND they can damage the f-hole shape. The bowright's 2 wires provide a STRAIGHT, sturdy PATH for the bow to follow. That is what is missing in those other alternatives.
Some bonuses that I realized as well were the following:
Quicker, closer to the strings, bow circles for songs like Allegro and others where you pick up the bow and start at the frog again. A sound-sensitive way of learning to keep the bow straight. When my kids would hear the ticking of the metal from their bows hitting it, they reacted instantaneously with better bowing until there was no sound.
In addition, I used this size on my younger child's 1/8 violin and it fit fine. My older child has a 1/2 violin.
So BRAVO for the Bowright, I love what it did for my kids and highly recommend it.

Glasser Standard 4/4 Violin Brown Fiberglass Bow with White Hair Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Our local luthier sold me this type of Glasser bow to use with my old violin. I've only been playing for about 4 months, so I don't have experience with a wide range of bows or with expensive bows. My Glasser bow plays well on my old violin, and I like using it. Out of all my beginner bows, this is definitely my favorite.

Full-size 4/4 Brazilwood Violin Bow Ebony Frog Review

Full-size 4/4 Brazilwood Violin Bow Ebony Frog
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
As a violinist of over 20 years who simply needed a new bow to 'fiddle' around the house and play some Classical music for my sweetie, this did the trick nicely. The quality isn't anything to write home about, but as the saying goes, a good musician can make almost any instrument sound good. I have owned bows ranging in price from this one to several thousand dollars. As I am no longer playing professionally, it made more sense to get a good value and I am not at all disappointed with my purchase.
If you're a professional violinist, this is not the product for you, but I would trust this seller as they provided exactly what I was looking for. Beginners and violin enthusiasts will be pleased with this item. The reason I gave this 4 stars is that the hair on the bow was in decent condition, which was a happy surprise.
