JonPaul “Noir*” carbonfibre viola bow

JonPaul bows, based in Salt Lake City, Utah, have traditionally focused on the upper end of the carbonfibre bow market. With their “JonPaul Noir” series of which this is their superior one-star model, they are catering for developing students while offering a very playable bow with great articulation and a very ready, controllable spiccato and sautillé. The dark-coloured stick and bi-coloured lapping combines with attractive Parisian eyes in the frog to give a very pleasuring appearance.
