Best Cello Bows
We have tested hundreds of cheap Cello bows and chosen this one as our favorite! If you're spending less than $400 on a wood bow, we recommend you go with Carbon Fiber. Any less of a quality wood bow will not give you the right weight distribution or curve. Nice Arch with Good Bounce and Action!

I am still very happy and can recommend this bow if you want an inexpensive bow to start with:"
"If you plan to play cello for quite some time, I recommend investing in a hybrid or carbon fiber bow that's at least in the 200~300 range."

I had amazon ship all my things together...... whoever condensed my items didn't take the effort to secure the items in my bulk package..... so there was a very good chance the bag of cat litter could had snapped or bent the bow. I was very upset when I saw it lying under the cat litter, and hoped it wasn't bent out of wack."
"First one broke but I got a replacement fast and the second was wonderful."
"I would suggest using some high-grade rosin with this bow."
"For the money, this bow is great."
"I just received my bow and am well pleased with it."
"After rosining the bow and testing in on the cello the hair started to slowly come off one by one."

Find Best Price at Amazon"Update: I was initially using a light colored rosin that came with my violin and I think was a cheap product and produced a lot of dust."
"I've been playing the violin for...gosh, over thirty years now, and my degree is in music ed. Bows, while admittedly a mixed lot, tend to be a "you get what you pay for" kind of thing, and a decent bow at this price range tends to be scarce as hen's teeth, as they say. I was pleased when I first pulled this bow from the box with its appearance--the black carbon fiber is very sharp-looking, especially with the clean fittings. The only negative I found with this bow was that it arrived with broken hairs--somewhere between 3 and 6 if memory serves. If the bow continues to lose hair, I'll adjust my review accordingly."
"He quickly assured me that the bow was a newer item that differed somewhat from the illustrations at Amazon, and to quell my concerns he offered to ship me the older model - because I wanted that design to distinguish it from my other CF bows. Well, he no longer had the originals but readily offered to send me, free of charge, an upgraded bow with a frog pattern of my choice. Both are light and well balanced, with the newer one a couple of grams lighter and more weighted towards the frog."
"The hair is Siberian Horse hair and since started playing I can hear a difference between my original bow and this one. One thing I noticed on this bow is the space between the frog and black wrap is not that big like my other bow."
