CARBON FIBER BOWS FOR CELLO
Savî: The More Sustainable Bow for Cellists
Introducing Savi—a bow designed for cellists who seek precision, power, and sustainability. Traditional cello bows rely on pernambuco, an endangered wood. At Maple Leaf Strings, we’ve developed Savî as a more sustainable alternative that delivers the same level of quality and durability cellists expect, while contributing to a more sustainable future.
The JonPaul Fusion is Carbon Fiber/Wood round stick, nickel-silver mounted. The JonPaul Fusion hybrid bow blends the best of both worlds: the strength and durability of carbon fiber with the warm, lovely sound of wood.
Pecatte re-imagined.
Vetta, the Italian word meaning the summit or the pinnacle. Patterned after an immaculate Pecatte bow in our collection, the Vetta is a perfect fusion of balance, weight, and flexibility. This work of art is a true player’s bow. It perfects your professional techniques while creating the warm, rich, and powerful tones of a legendary Pecatte bow. The appearance is enhanced with an elegantly textured, “varnished” finish that is both unique and beautiful. The supple, fine French feel coupled with classic 14 karat rose gold mountings and rich red-brown hues make the Vetta the perfect bow for your collection.
Played and endorsed by symphony, stage and studio professionals around the world.
Patterned after an exquisite French Pajeot bow, the Carrera is quick, agile and feels like an extension of your own arm. Built into the design of each Carrera is perfect balance, weight, and flexibility, which not only enhances your techniques as a player, but creates warm, rich and powerful tones. The distinctive appearance features a textured, “varnished” finish with elegant red-brown hues. Mounted in sterling silver with a fan-tail button, the Carrera is not only beautiful, it will match any demands you place on it. Frog and button available in ebony, white horn or black horn.
Affordable luxury.
JonPaul developed the Muse in response to the many requests for a bow that plays similar to the Carrera, but at a lower retail price. Hand colored and finished like the Carrera, we included everything we could to resemble its older brother. The stick is slightly stronger, and feels incredible. It is mounted beautifully in sterling silver with the JonPaul signature "hand finished" texture.
Agile. Alert. Amazing!
Agile, alert and amazing. Our least expensive silver-mounted bow, the Avanti feels, sounds, and plays like a bow costing thousands.
Ruby-colored (bling!)
Sparkling ruby metallic-woven carbon fiber. The JonPaul Vibrant is stunning and it plays like a more expensive bow. The vibrant is designed for the intermediate advancing player.
Available in violin, viola, cello and bass.
You asked for this bow and we listened.
The Corona came about from interviewing many shops and players. When we asked what features you wanted in an affordable bow, the criteria was clear: weight, balance, strength, price, and finish. The Corona exceeds expectations. The firm stick has deep camber to fit both the classical and contemporary styles. The hand colored wood-like finish permeates the entire stick for extreme durability. It is mounted with a traditional nickel-silver ebony frog, with an alloy tip that compliments the Peccatte/Maline style head.
Excellent student-level carbon fiber bow.
The JonPaul Noir is durable, yet sophisticated enough to partner well with a developing student. It is strong, straight, and consistent.
Available in violin, viola, cello, and bass

A beginning player should not have to make a large investment in his or her first bow. At the same time, it is unrealistic to expect an inexperienced player to excel if he or she is forced to play with poorly balanced, weak, or warped bow. K.Holtz FG bows require no compromise — they are designed with beginning players’ specific needs and budgets in mind. These strong, well-balanced, attractive bows produce a smooth, clear sound without a lot of physical effort from the player. And with K.Holtz FG bows, players can invest their efforts in improving their playing without having to invest a lot of money in their bows.
