Yes I believe this is true but a good bow repair person can make things all better.

So, they're really good bows, then? I'm still uding a cheap fibreglass bow, but I might just have to try out one of the german bows.

Contrary to what I've read the hair on the carbon fiber bow I bought from them works pretty good, it's on par with or even better than the hair I got from David Gage when I got my bow rehaired.

For the money, especially if you can get one from one of the auctions that begin low, they are great bows. I'm still playing on the white hair that came on the Baroque bow I got from them and it's proving to be very nice.

I just had my Yita permabuco bow rehaired. Bought several months ago. I personally talked with the person who rehaired it, and she assured me that nothing had been glued on and no difficulty removing the hair. With a rehair, this bow seems a lot louder and it has improved the sound. Now, I like it even more. I had the lighter hair put on.
