Description

How do you get to Carnegie Hall?...practicing with good equipment is the logical first step.


This full size violin bow, generously donated by Johnson String Instrument of Newton, MA, will take you miles along that route. Stamped "Johnson String Instruments", it is completely hand made of Pernambuco wood from Brazil. The stick is round with a sterling silver and ebony frog, and weighs approx. 60 grams.


This is a solid investment for an intermediate player looking for quality, or an advanced player needing a reliable second bow.

This is a Live Event Item.
