*SOLD* For sale, bow by Joseph Kun

I'm selling a french frog bow made by Joseph Kun. It was made in the 1960's. This is a professional quality bow. The stick is made of an absolutely gorgeous piece of pernambuco. It has a huge, resonant, clear and rich sound. Plays great and does all the strokes.

It's in good condition, considering its age. Some surface scratches. It has some wear from the thumb that has been somewhat hidden by the leather grip.

I'm asking only $1,800.00 for it (which is a bargain, considering that it was appraised last year for $3,000.00). It would be hard to find this quality of a bow for twice that much!

Here's some pics:

Joesph was a fine bow maker, and I like the very masculine features of this hatchet...
