Brazilwood Double Bass Bows
Brazilwood bows offer high value for students and advancing players. However, the available quality of wood has declined in recent years, while non-wood bow technology continues to improve. These dynamics have diminished the overall desirability of low end wood bows. Consider a non-wood alternative, to optimize the value for any budget in this price range.

Eastman Economy Brazilwood
Eastman's entry-level brazilwood bows allow students on a budget to enjoy the advantages of hand-made quality. Starting with strong, aged brazilwood sticks, our bowmakers construct bows the old-fashioned way. Ebony frogs fully mounted in nickel silver and mother-of-pearl, leather and imitation whalebone grips, and quality unbleached Mongolian horsehair all contribute to a bow that will assist and reward a beginning player’s efforts.
