{"product_id":"gewa-archet-4-4-pure-bois-du-bresil-octogonal-284818","title":"VIOLIN BOWS 4\/4","description":"\u003ch3\u003eA classic shape, appreciated by bow makers: the octagonal for precision\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eoctagonal stick\u003c\/strong\u003e is among the traditional shapes found on many bows, as it can provide a very clear guiding sensation under the fingers. In practice, the octagonal shape is often sought after for its \u003cstrong\u003estability\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eclarity of movement\u003c\/strong\u003e, especially when working on bow stroke consistency. The choice of \u003cstrong\u003ewamara\u003c\/strong\u003e, a dense wood used for certain sticks, aligns with the pursuit of a firm touch and reliable response, while maintaining an authentic \"violin bow\" spirit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFor which musician and uses?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThanks to its \u003cstrong\u003e4\/4 size\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003enatural hair\u003c\/strong\u003e, this violin bow is primarily intended for violinists playing a 4\/4 instrument, from the \u003cstrong\u003eserious beginner\u003c\/strong\u003e to the \u003cstrong\u003eintermediate\u003c\/strong\u003e player seeking a bow capable of supporting regular technical work. It is particularly suitable for repertoires requiring clean control of attacks and legato: \u003cstrong\u003eclassical\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003e\"modern\" baroque\u003c\/strong\u003e (on current setup), film music, as well as orchestral arrangements. For more rhythmically driven music (folk, traditional music, pop), it remains relevant whenever a \u003cstrong\u003eclear response\u003c\/strong\u003e and well-defined articulation are desired.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSound quality\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe sound of a bow depends as much on the \u003cstrong\u003ematerial of the stick\u003c\/strong\u003e as on the quality of contact between the \u003cstrong\u003ehair\u003c\/strong\u003e and the string. Here, the \u003cstrong\u003ewamara\u003c\/strong\u003e provides a sense of firmness and stability, which helps maintain a clean bow path, especially in sensitive areas like the tip and string crossings. The \u003cstrong\u003eoctagonal shape\u003c\/strong\u003e promotes a more direct perception of the stick's orientation, useful for refining the attack angle and gaining consistency. The \u003cstrong\u003enatural hair\u003c\/strong\u003e, meanwhile, offers progressive grip: it allows working on \u003cstrong\u003edynamics\u003c\/strong\u003e (from piano to forte), clean détaché strokes, as well as more decisive attacks without forcing. With appropriate rosin, one generally obtains a clearer response at the start of notes and better control of common bow strokes (détaché, light martelé, legato, basic spiccato depending on technique).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eRecommended compatible accessories\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eTo get the best out of your \u003cstrong\u003enatural hair\u003c\/strong\u003e, a \u003cstrong\u003eviolin rosin\u003c\/strong\u003e is essential: it conditions grip, attack cleanliness, and playing comfort. A \u003cstrong\u003esoft cloth\u003c\/strong\u003e (lint-free) is also recommended to wipe the stick after playing and limit the accumulation of rosin dust.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cstyle\u003e@media(max-width:632px){table[data-wb-spec]{display:grid;grid-template-columns:minmax(0,1fr) minmax(0,1fr)}table[data-wb-spec] colgroup{display:none}table[data-wb-spec] tbody,table[data-wb-spec] tr{display:contents}table[data-wb-spec] td{display:block;overflow-wrap:anywhere;grid-row:var(--wb-l);background-color:var(--wb-lb)}table[data-wb-spec] td[data-r]{grid-row:var(--wb-r);background-color:var(--wb-rb)}table[data-wb-spec] td[colspan=\"2\"]{grid-column:1\/-1}table[data-wb-spec] td:empty{display:none}}\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003ctable data-wb-spec style=\"width:100%;table-layout:fixed\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:1;--wb-r:4;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003e4\/4\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eBrown\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:transparent;--wb-l:2;--wb-r:5;--wb-lb:transparent;--wb-rb:var(--wb-neutral-50)\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWand material\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eWood\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQuantity\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003e1\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:3;--wb-r:6;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInstrument\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eViola\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r colspan=\"2\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ctable data-wb-spec style=\"width:100%;table-layout:fixed\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:transparent;--wb-l:1;--wb-r:4;--wb-lb:transparent;--wb-rb:var(--wb-neutral-50)\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003e4\/4\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eType\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003enatural hair\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:2;--wb-r:5;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWood\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003ewamara\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct type\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eviolin bow\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:transparent;--wb-l:3;--wb-r:6;--wb-lb:transparent;--wb-rb:var(--wb-neutral-50)\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShape\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eoctagonal\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r colspan=\"2\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Gewa","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54358118007059,"sku":"284818","price":48.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0984\/0872\/6803\/files\/39155f1bd58486d6a98d7b2f7235243ae39be196_GEWA_35709.jpg?v=1792552102","url":"https:\/\/woodbrass.shop\/products\/gewa-violin-bows-4-4-284818","provider":"Woodbrass.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
