Müsing L5 Carbon Fiber Violin Bow

Light and powerful, agile and rugged, nimble and steady, flexible and tough – the new L-series bows unite qualities that you can normally not find in one bow.

The first thing you might notice about the L5 bow is the elegant snakewood frog. Next, perhaps the timeless and indestructible stainless steel fittings. But the real fun comes when it shows what it can do in terms of sound. It plays two tiers above its cost: colourful, clear, powerful and capable of wide modulation. Strictly speaking, no musician needs more than this, and in its price range it’s the champion anyway.

Compared to the Arcus bows, the L-bows are of similar weight. However, they are more flexible and therefore more forgiving in their playing style, at the expense of a bit less precision and sheer power.
