It seems like there is a dearth of information about the German bow. I don’t quite know what causes this, but there just seem to be many more French players and information out there.
Imagine my joy and surprise when I read Stan Haskins’ Budget German bow roundup. He seems to give reasonably high marks to the Arcos Brazil bows, one of which I own. The bow is stamped “H. Cirillo” and is a very well-made, well-balanced bow. I paid less than $800 for it and have kept my eyes open for another bow in that range, but haven’t found anything yet.
If you’re looking for a bow in the sub-$800 range, read Haskins’ post and check out the bows he discusses.
Thanks for the mention, Matthew – very kind of you, and I’m glad to know that someone’s reading!
Hey Matt –
Would you mind telling me where you got your Arcos bow? I might be back in the market . . .
