Arcus P6 Silver Octagonal 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.

On par with the finest wooden bows, the P6 pulls a full, rich and warm sound with a beautiful range of overtones. In combination with its perfect playing properties, clean articulation and superior projection you can easily reach your audience in perfect style.
