I learned a lot about bows from this video. Thank you!
Very welcome Nina!
I have heard many things to look for in a bow, but I would love to hear reasons to find a new bow. How do I know it's time to replace my bow?
I would say on principle a better bow will teach you or at least help you play better music, with a finer, more varied, richer sound. If you can afford it it can only be good to change. But of course try other people's bows, and/or bows within your possible budget from a dealer, for a few hours or a few days. If at the end nothing you can afford feels higher quality than your bow, don't change. If one bow you can afford gives you a lot more musical and sound possibilities, then you deserve it. If you aren't so sure you can always ask a good player to try for you and give you his opinion.
@@JulienGaudfroyI like that you mention 'deserve' since that is the right feeling. If your technique still involves a lot of pressure a strong supportive bow will suit you fine and you don't need a more refined bow which is nice for your bank balance.
Tip #1 Have lots of cash!
OR: start with a REALLY cheap bow, and then any middle of the range bow after that will seem really nice :)
