I have received many bows over my violin career, but the very, very finest are the bows I had sought out and purchased due to their superior craftsmanship, their outstanding reputation, a guarantee which is either ten years or lifetime, and a bow which is engineered for musicians to perform at their highest level of excellence. I own four violins with an average price of $2,700.00 each, and just as a violin is one-half of the instrument, the bow is the other half of the instrument. For without the bow, the violin cannot make music, and without the violin, the bow likewise cannot. So many musicians spend an exorbitant amount of money on their violins, and then without much thought purchase an inexpensive bow. I researched bows throughout the internet for weeks before I spent my money on a bow which becomes a crucial component to my violin. The CodaBow Diamond Series repeatedly came to the top of my search each and every time. Lightweight, carbon fiber, 100% Mongolian horse tail, engineered by an aerospace engineer on their staff, a guarantee which was the best in the field (no one guarantees bows), light and balanced to the touch. I initially purchased a Diamond Series NX (Nickel - their entry level), and was so impressed, the next bow I purchased was the Diamond Series GX (Gold - their top of the line). Both bows performed far above any other bows I have ever held in my hand before. From the first time rosin met tightened horsehair, one could feel that the bow was different from any other I had ever held before. Suddenly, the "sweet spot" was enormous, and the tone and vitality of the strings were uniform from frog to tip. The was no wavering in the note throughout the stoke. Every note was clean, clear, crisp, and movement from string to string was rapid due to its light weight carbon fiber. I own three CodaBows; if I purchase another violin, I will purchase a fourth CodaBow...its that simple. They are simply the GOLD STANDARD by which all other bows should be compared against.Read full review
