VIOLIN VIOLA CELLO BASS
A few years ago Arcus did a complete redesign of their entire product line.
Over the years they had developed innovative new manufacturing techniques and this,
coupled with a deeper understanding of the properties of their bows and the expressed
needs of the players using them, prompted their engineers to go back to the drawing board.
They realised that the knowledge they had gained over the years would allow them to take bow design
to a level of sophistication that had never been possible before. The results speak for themselves.
All Arcus bows are classified by resonance. The higher the number, the better the resonance of the stick.
Longtime Arcus players are telling us that they were shocked to discover the difference in playability between the older bows and the newer versions
particularly since many believed them to be perfect already.
| S | superlight, superstrong, superfast, brilliant sound |
| M | more flexible and heavy, warm, rich sound |
S ~ Series
Extremely powerful, with an open and brilliant sound, these bows fit ideally with large and dark sounding instruments. Their maneuverability and power make them the perfect bows for solos, chamber music and the most demanding orchestral pieces.
