Hi everyone,

I just bought a nice snakewood German bow that I like a lot. I just need to take it in to a shop for some minor adjustments. The tip of the bow is really heavy and needs to be lightened. I read that some holes just need to be drilled into the tip to make it lighter. I switched from playing french bow to German bow last year and never had to do anything like this to my other bows. How much would a shop charge to drill holes in the tip of the bow?

Thanks
