An early bow by the great British maker with bunches of charm and a deceptive feel in the hand when being played. As with many of his bows he employs a slight stain on the stick to even out the look. This bow has all the hallmarks one would like to see on a good quality Tubbs.

Characteristics

A typical fine Tubbs feel is a lovely thing to behold when playing, I especially like understated bows like this one that pack such a great punch when used. Very manoeuvrable this is a bow that just plays and you don't need to consider issues such as control. I feel that this bow is a bit of a bargain.

Condition

There is a small break in the stick in the upper half - only small and not visible to the eye. This in no way changes the playing credentials it just makes a lovely bow more affordable to the busy violinist. Otherwise this bow is in tremendous condition for its age and is a very honest bow from this great maker.
