ARCUS CELLO BOWS
The use of endpins and steel strings have changed the playing and the sound of the cello in quite a dramatic way and has given it added brilliance and power. The Arcus cello bows are the first bows that allow you to use this potential completely. Their sticks are both much stronger than wooden sticks and lighter. This provides ultimate agility and elegance, an effortless playing, instant response on all strings and significantly improved playing comfort.
They pull a clean and open sound that can be very soft and extremely powerful. The sound in the upper registers is brilliant and shows a beautiful range of overtones.
T SERIES
The T-bows special characteristics is a sound that combines great warmth and depth with a wide range of overtones and brilliance. The elasticity of the stick is precisely matched to modern steel core strings and while they feel soft when playing lightly, their stiffness kicks in when power and intensity are required. All this makes them the perfect all round bows for every repertoire and setting.
The T4 is a great start into the Arcus bows. It offers the same great playing characteristics of its more expensive siblings. With its stainless steel outfit it is even more robust. Its sound surpasses "normal" carbon bows and most wooden bows in its class. Its clear sound can help you find perfect intonation and its precise bounce allows to master difficult bow strokes much easier.
