Play with precision
One of the key factors in a bow's ability to create a warm tone and a full sound is its stability. GEWA is known for its craft and particularly for producing well-balanced bows. This is crucial because balance allows you to play with precision and easily shape the sound you want to produce, as you have complete control over the bow.
The round stick on the GEWA Carbon Student double bass bow adds to its steadiness; it's a popular design because it's comfortable when playing during long rehearsals. Enjoy a bow that you can rely on throughout your playing journey - while you're learning and once you're more advanced.
Sleek and sturdy carbon
Carbon is a true all-rounder when it comes to stick material. It gives the bow a sleek, sophisticated look, while also providing serious durability and resilience. First of all, it's strong, so it will endure any bumps or drops and is very unlikely to snap. Yet even despite its strength, the GEWA Carbon Student double bass bow is incredibly responsive. With this bow, students can play with confidence.
Beyond strength, carbon is resistant to changes in temperature. Whereas wood can expand or contract in heat, carbon can withstand varying temperatures and humidity without warping - and warping can impact the bow's balance. This means carbon bows are popular among players who might perform outside, but also for any players who want to ensure that their bow maintains its balance and stable structure no matter the conditions.
The finer details
GEWA always considers the details that will add to a bow's comfort, appearance and ability to create a great sound. Ebony is the perfect material for the frog because it has a firm, dense feel. The frog won't require any varnish thanks to ebony's natural oils, making it the perfect surface for contact with your thumb. Embedded in the ebony frog is a beautiful slide and a mother-of-pearl eye - details which add up to create an attractive overall look.
Hold your bow in comfort thanks to the nickel silver taping. This metal is durable and remains in great condition despite the fact it has a lot of contact with your hand. You'll be able to play for long sessions and maintain a rich tone because of the GEWA Carbon Student bass bow's quality, natural hair.
