Bass Viol Bow with Sliding Frog by Richard Jones - a traditional early bow hand made in the UK from beech or similar weighted wood.

This type of bow, rather than one adjusted by a screw-fitting, was the typical bow for stringed instruments from around 1500—1700. Made mainly from beech, which is less dense than pernambuco, but there are sometimes larch, oak or green-heart bows Approximate Weight and Length: Weight: 70g Length: 770mm Shop ref: Q2, Q6, P23
