At CodaBow we know The Bow Matters. That's why we decided it's time for a fully customizable bow. Introducing Chroma, a new way to find your lifetime bow because it was created by you for you. Chroma is for the musicians who know exactly what they want out of a bow, and CodaBow is here to make the dream bow a reality.
Striking and dignified, the Heritage viola bow demands an audience with its powerful presence. With classic appearance and pull, it easily ranks among the elites such as W.E. Hill. An understated look contradicts its full, rich tone and despite its minimalist aesthetic, it is sure to delight listeners with a luxurious warmth and depth. Like a fine merlot, the viola bow’s versatile profile blends with any music and stands as an excellent choice for serious musicians.
Natural Acoustic Core
Through decades of innovation and experience, we've learned the best viola bows need more than just carbon fiber. The CodaBow Heritage contains a Natural Acoustic Core comprised of a medley of organic plant fibers, producing refined, rich tones.
Unidirectional Carbon Fiber
The CodaBow Heritage viola bow incorporates advanced unidirectional carbon fiber, which extends continuously from the button to the tip on both sides of the shaft. Through this considerate design, the player's fingertips can sense the bow's full-length dynamics and response like never before, emulating the grain pattern of the finest Pernambuco bows.
Designed to Last
All components on the Heritage that are susceptible to wear and tear (such as the tip wedge, tip plate, and button bearings) are precision-made with industry-leading composite materials to afford you a lifetime of worry-free viola play.
Xebony® Frog Solution
Xebony® is an elegant solution to the global shortage of endangered instrument-grade ebony. This unique blend of resin and natural fibers imparts a beautiful shine and authentic grain. Stronger and more durable than real ebony, Xebony® offers peace of mind while helping save endangered resources.
A Bow for the Global Stage
The GlobalBow® designation ensures that the Heritage viola bow was not made with any regulated, endangered, or monitored species (fauna or wildlife), so you can take it through international Customs without trouble.
I have played for over 30 years and love this bow! I recently had to emergency-replace the bow I've used for over 2 decades and was hesitant to consider a carbon fiber. Understanding technology has developed, I had 5 shipped to my home to try. This was velvet. Perfectly balanced, warm tone with my violin, yet responds well to my fast, harsh bowing. I play classical in an orchestra as well as loud stage music connected to In-ears and large sound system. It has to do it all and this one does! Blew the 5 wooden bows out of the water. Looks classy, traditional, minimalistic, yet has a beautiful sheen to the stick.
