Arcus M4 Cello bow

Description

The Arcus M4 Cello bow offers a very nice warm and full sound with good projection and remarkable clarity. From the very start this bow provides for relaxed playing and a very pleasing tone and makes playing difficult passages much more enjoyable.

The ‘M’ series are easy to handle, making it easy to execute the most difficult strokes with absolute precision. Its darker and warmer sound suits brighter instruments and blends really well in the orchestra. They offer the same great comfort and ease of playing as the S-series but are not quite as powerful or brilliant sounding.

What is the difference between the T-series, M-series and the S-series Cello bows?

The S-series have a low weight and high elasticity providing unparalleled agility and speed. They are recommended for dark sounding instruments. Suited to soloists

The M-series are a little heavier than the S-series and draw out a warmer, softer sound. They are perfect all-rounder bows and recommended for brighter instruments

The T-series is a universal bow. The special characteristic is a sound that combines great warmth and depth with a wide range of overtones and brilliance

All Arcus bows are classified by resonance. The higher the number, the better the resonance of the stick. For a more detailed description of each category summarised below, please click here.
