Comment: AB610F is a silver mounted master crafted bow from Meister Ewe Dürrschmidt. He chooses fine grained wood that is aged longer so it is lighter, stronger and more flexible than the woods he uses in his workshop model bows. These fine sticks are cut to be slender but strong in the neck to offer support for the head which is nicely shaped but not overly large. The bows are very nicely balanced for articulate play. The hard, dry sticks draw a dark, clear tone with a ringing volume. These bows remain an exceptionally good value when compared to the price of other master-crafted pernambuco bows.
