A Traditional Consumable at the Heart of the Bow
Natural hair remains the historical reference for transmitting the bow's energy to the string. Unbleached, it retains a more "raw" character appreciated for its consistent grip and natural playing feel, especially during careful rehairing.
For What Use and Profile?
This hair is intended for demanding musicians, workshops, and professionals (luthiers, bow makers) for routine maintenance: replacing worn hair, loss of grip, or seeking a more stable response. Suitable for all repertoires, from classical to contemporary music, depending on the rosin and bow adjustment.
Sound Quality
Natural unbleached hair can offer a clear and progressive grip, useful for articulating distinctly without hardening the sound. It facilitates dynamic work (from pianissimo to forte) and sound sustain, with a more organic contact sensation at the hair bundle.
