Arcus P7 Silver 935 Round Violin Bow
Many powerful sounding violins are also a bit on the bright side. For those we have developed our P-series bows. Their especially resilient stick allows to easily catch any heavy G-string and to play double stops in fortissimo without the stick touching down on the strings. To make them draw a warmer, deeper sound, we have added some weight which lowers the tuning of the bow. They are still significantly lighter than traditional bows, so they keep their advantage in agility and speed. The P-bows with octagonal sticks are especially lively and bounce almost automatically while the round version are especially steady and follow the hand precisely.
The sound of the P7 is notably cleaner, richer and fuller than any wooden bow. It is perfectly suited to blend in with chamber music and orchestra works, but also has the power and brilliance to make yourself heard whenever you want to.
