Carbon fiber bows are the most robust yet playable bows on the market to date. Contrary to popular belief about carbon fiber bows, they actually produce a decent sound. This is why I myself have performed on carbon fiber bows ever since I first got my hands on one when I was only 13 years old. The advantage of using carbon fiber bows over wooden made bows is that you can hit the bow as hard as you want on the string and fingerboard for pieces that require extended technique, and still have your bow look perfectly fine without a scratch. These bows last forever, so it is the greatest investment one could ever make, with minimal depreciation. I hope you guys enjoy the Fiesta bow! 

BONUS: you were receive all my sheet music for free if you purchase a Fiesta bow. I will send you a discount code for 100% off all my sheet music.

Fantastic Bow

First of all: The service is perfect. I ordered a bow with black hair and received a nice haired bow plus two sets of white hair extra.
I've played many different bows, including a french soloist bow from the 19th century - which was by far the best, but also by far the most expensive: 10'000.- USD. This said: The "Fiesta" is extremely well balanced and has a very nice articulation. It's a pleasure to play with this bow and I recommend it without reservation. Thank you for the great service!

Fiesta French Bow

My first impressions are quite positive. Though I'm a German bow player I wanted to try out this relatively inexpensive French bow. I find to be of good workmanship, feels good to the hand, draws a good sound and is surprisingly articulate. It is a good value, I recommend it

Arco maravilloso

Increíble este arco. Tardó 10 días en llegar a mi casa a España. Muy bien empaquetado, aunque lo pedí con cerdas blancas, llegó con cerdas blancas y negras, pero con un repuesto de pelo blanco de regalo. Funciona perfectamente, está equilibrado, es ligero, la respuesta es rápido, suena muy dulce y es fácil tocar. A los 2 segundos de sujetarlo notas que es un gran arco. Soy profesor de contrabajo y a mi compañero también le ha encantado y lo estamos recomendando a alumnos. Gracias Xavier
