TONONI PRIMUS CARBON BOW 3/4 SIZE FOR VIOLIN

The affordable carbon bow for beginners

Carbon bows differ from traditional wooden bows in that their shaft is made of carbon fibers (also called “carbon fiber”). This is not “plastic” or “fiberglass,” but a high-tech material that has found its way into applications in recent years where high breaking strength and elasticity combined with light weight are required, such as in the automotive industry or in aerospace engineering.

Modern carbon fiber bows are generally superior to entry-level wooden bows. They have a stiff yet flexible shaft, a feature often lacking in basic wooden bows today, but essential for a good playing feel. Carbon fiber bows are also significantly less prone to breakage – a crucial factor in school settings.

Our TONONI primus carbon bow is ideal for beginners.
