Core Select 100 Series Viola Bow

The Core Select 100 Series Viola Bow is a durable, performance-oriented bow crafted from black polished carbon graphite, designed for students and advancing violists who need dependable consistency. Its composite construction resists warping and humidity changes, making it a practical choice for daily practice, school orchestra programs, and travel. The bow features a full-lined ebony frog with Parisian eye and a 3-part button with eye, reflecting traditional craftsmanship in a modern material.

Tonally, the carbon graphite stick delivers the firmness and weight needed to draw a full, resonant sound from the viola's lower strings. Its balanced response encourages controlled bow strokes, helping players develop clean articulation, smooth string crossings, and a warm, focused tone across the entire range of the instrument.

Ideal for students, instructors, and ensemble players who need a reliable primary or backup bow, the Core Select 100 Series combines resilience, comfort, and refined appointments. The thread and wire grip provides a secure, comfortable hold, supporting confident technique at every stage of development.
