CBB-01G 3/4 Carbon Bassbow : Good carbon starter bow for beginners
4 years ago
Bought this bow as my second "con legno" bow. Expected a better sound in comparison to cheap wooden bows but with this bow this not the case.
Sound is extremely warm, muffled and silent. For rosin I am using pops.
Maybe is the hair quailty, so one can also check with rehairing the bow.
Stick and frog look good, metal winding and leather not. As usual with bow in this price range. Bow is light and the stick is not "dead" as that can be the case with cheaper wooden bows. Spiccato works ;)
Recommendation for beginners who are starting to play a double bass. Cheap and it does the job.
