Key Features
The GEWA Germany Pernambuco Double Bass Bow is a bow for a traditional sound. Made of pernambuco, this bow looks great and is built to last.

The round stick helps to create the perfect balance point, giving you control over your bow and the expression you add to your playing.
Experience a perfectly balanced bow. GEWA's German engineering techniques get the balance point just right with a round stick shape. Enjoy a comfortable hold that looks great too with an ebony frog providing a contrast with pernambuco's natural colour. Ebony is also the perfect surface for contact with your thumb, as it provides enough grip.

Create the finest tone with a traditional pernambuco bow. Even after advancements in technology and the introduction of carbon bows, many professional string players feel that the warm, pure tone that a classic pernambuco bow gives you is impossible to match. It's the best type of wood for bows because of how dense it is, meaning it can be cut thinly and be carefully crafted into a well-balanced bow while still maintaining its strength, and therefore its durability.
The finer details of the GEWA Germany Pernambuco Double Bass Bow add to its sound potential, comfort, and appearance. An Ebony frog is an ideal surface for resting your thumb. Ebony is known for its firm, dense feel, with natural oils which don't require any varnish, making it the perfect surface for a lot of contact. This bow has been crafted to the highest standards of precision that GEWA's German-made bows are known for. Create the rich, traditional sound too thanks to quality, natural hair.
