Merry Christmas!
I am looking to upgrade my violin bow within the next 4-6 months. I plan to test the bow before buying. The two that I like so far based on reviews are the codabow sx and the glasser braided carbon bow. Does anyone have any experience with these? I have read good reviews on the codabow aspire and colours as well as classic (but this one is over my budget). I called Shar and they had mentioned the presto series which I know little about. I would appreciate any feedback on the above bows or any other bow you have had experience with. Smile

Thank you,
Seahawkwalt

Sorry that I do not have eny help for you inchosing ,
I can advise you to try bows out before purchasing.
Look for a supplier that will ship the bow and give you a week or 2 to try it out and then to return it or purchase it.

Carbon fiber bows have come a long way, they play well and have many good charachteristics of a good bow.

be wise in your choice.

good luck
