The JonPaul workshops in Salt Lake City, Utah, are widely known for their pioneering, high-class carbonfibre bows, designed for advanced and advancing students. More recently they have expanded their range upwards, with a small team of three expert traditional bow makers creating fine master bows from their stocks of 30–50-year-old, highly selected pernambuco wood. This silver-lapped “F. Valino” violin bow was handmade by their leading archetier and stamped with his family name. Not only are the material and workmanship exquisite, the bow has great balance, tone, strength and articulation. A top professional bow!
