Comment:
Again,
Dolling has used his most fancy 'bois
ondé' flamed pernambuco. The
grain is very beautiful and is 'stacked' perfectly
on the head. This particular bow is from
the Fetique Historic Copy and features
the strong, stout stick typical of the model with
emphasis on control
along the entire length of the cambre. Balance
is quite good, and the tone
has a good strong depth. Here is a
very playable orchestra bow. tb
