Marquise GS Viola
TEST
TEST
Drawing from centuries of tradition and decades of bow making expertise, the CodaBow Marquise GS stands as the pinnacle of master-level viola bows. Created by innovative bow making leaders, the Marquise GS delivers artful handling and expressive sound traditionally limited to only the finest master viola bows. Unidirectional carbon fiber extends continuously from button to tip for heightened response and sensitivity. A meticulous blend of advanced and organic fibers creates a tonal vibrancy and resonance unlike any carbon fiber viola bow before. Supple in the hand and lively to the ear, the CodaBow Marquise GS enchants professional viola players more than any other type of player.
When you purchase this carbon fiber viola bow from CodaBow.com, you receive free shipping and a 30-day risk-free return.
A meticulously designed Natural Acoustic Core is comprised of a blend of organic plant fibers delivering a rich, natural experience. With decades of experience, we have learned that creating superior, sophisticated sound requires more than carbon fiber alone.
Elegant and natural, In-Touch™ architecture displays a pioneering innovation: unidirectional carbon fibers that flow continuously from the button to tip on both sides of the shaft. This breakthrough technology empowers a viola player's fingertips to discern the bow's full-length dynamics and response in an entirely new way, emulating the grain structure of the finest Pernambuco bows.
All high-wear components (such as the tip wedge, button bearings, and tip plate) of the Marquise GS viola bow are precision-made using advanced composite materials to ensure a lifetime of worry-free play.
An elegant solution to the world's endangered supply of instrument-grade ebony, Xebony® is a proprietary blend of natural fibers and resin that showcases a natural grain and luxurious gleam, impressing viola players and bow makers alike. More resilient and reliant than natural ebony, Xebony® gives you the confidence to play while protecting an endangered resource.
The CodaBow Marquise GS is a GlobalBow® designated viola bow, which ensures it does not contain regulated, endangered, or monitored species (fauna or wildlife) and can pass through international Customs without a problem.

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.
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.
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?
