Carbon fibre bows possess a distinct advantage over wooden bows due to the material’s resistance to changes in temperature and humidity.  Whereas wooden bows are prone to snap or warp, carbon fibre is a remarkably durable material, making a carbon fibre bow a worthwhile investment for travelling musicians.

Maestro Archetier’s carbon fibre range of bows is significantly higher in quality than many others at this price range, with a camber specially designed by the school’s master bow makers.  The bows are graded to meet the needs of players at different levels.

The Standard model is a very responsive bow that will enable advancing students to perform more advanced technique such as staccato and martele with dexterity and ease.
