Viola Incredibow

A viola bow you can REALLY get a grip on! (Comfortably)

There are many features and qualities of our Incredibows which you will find unbelievable until you try one!

• Our Viola bows are unique among all the bows available! “One piece” hand constructed of composite graphite tapered stick; permanent hair; no adjustment ever needed; pre-tensioned; convex bow!
• Any length up to 29″ long
• Weight: Featherweight – about 40 grams.  Our featherweight Viola bow is designed with so many unique features you have to essentially throw away most of what you’ve been taught about what a great Viola bow must be. We are challenging old traditions and old thinking.
• Weight: Medium weight – about 50 grams
• Weight: Traditional weight – about 60 grams
• “Modified octagonal grip” on all standard Incredibows.
• Each Viola bow is hand crafted one by one, with care to make each one as perfect as we can get it!!
• This is not just a novel bow! This is a serious, professional, functional bow now being used and appreciated by many musicians throughout the world – those classically trained as well as those in contemporary venues, from symphony orchestras to rock bands! Want to learn what they are saying about our bows? Go to Google, type in “Incredibow” and check some of the sites.

Every Incredibow we make is composed of the following parts:

• Stick made of a hollow, tapered graphite/epoxy tube. This stick is born straight.
• Frog and tip wedge hand cast of polyester resin and covered with five layers of vinyl rubber.
• Over 200 hairs made of synthetic material, applied under tension, and permanently attached.
• Grip or finger/thumb rest in front of frog with octagonal surfaces
• Two decorative brass bands separating vinyl coating from stick surface.
• Many color options for decorative covering on the bow stick including the popular “Panther” color polished graphite with hard baked-on finish.
• Solid decorative brass fitting where hair meets bow on each end to keep hair spread properly.
• Clear durable epoxy coating on each end of hair to create smooth transition from hair to stick to prevent problems with “over run” onto the strings while locking the hair in place.
• Unique “open mouth” of frog and tip under the hair, allowing clear communication of hair with stick and instrument, resulting in the finest, fullest sound of the instrument. (No dampering from the rubber coating).
• PLEASE NOTE: These bows are custom made by hand when the order is placed. Occasionally, I may have a few on the shelf – but those go quick and most bows are hand-crafted after the order has been placed and purchased. Typically, orders are made and shipped within two weeks.

Warranty: We warrant the stick and hair to function well for at least three years without need of replacement. Satisfaction warranted; full money back within 30 days’ return of bow from time of receipt if you are simply not satisfied with he bow. Nothing else like it in the world!

BASIC – “No Frills” viola bows start at $136 for BASIC carbon bow
STANDARD – Viola bows with any color choice start at $156
HIGH TENSION – Add $30 to above prices
High Tension option: Something not even possible with a horsehair bow – at least DOUBLE the tension of the usual bow! This utilizes a DOUBLE THICK WALL in our sticks, allowing the high tension without adding more arc in the bow. However, these high tension bows are of medium weight, due to the thicker wall – NOT available in the featherweight or traditional weight version.  This also has the wider stick thickness (AS WITH OUR CELLOBOWS) for any of the violin, viola, omni, or cello HIGH TENSION option.  The High Tension works well for aggressive players and also has less bounce than our regular tension bows.
