great... but more bows would be nice

I wish I could have trialed 6 bows at once instead of 3. They all sound entirely unique in both good and bad ways. I found one that balances well with my viola, but perhaps it could have been an even better match with more options.

Marvellous

I’ve no words to express how happy and satisfied I am with the bow. The sound is similar to my best pernambuco bow (which I never found one that sounds that good for years). Feels solid in my hand and the playability is better than all my pernambuco bows (I have 6).
About the look, of course better than any wooden bow.
Thanks Coda Bows for the pleasure of years to come.

Superior bow in every way!

I trialed 4 bows for a week: 2 Marquise and 2 Diamond GX as I was upgrading from my student Diamond NX. While I enjoyed all 4–and I had planned to go with the GX- I fell in love with 1 of the Marquise for what it did for my violin and how natural it felt in my hand. What I would say makes the difference that justified the $$ for me was how responsive the bow was for expression and inflection of tone and color. I don’t pretend to be a great virtuoso but this bow helps take my playing to a new level and increases my love for playing my violin. And really, isn’t that what it’s all about?
