If you live in Europe, so do I! That would make the transaction easier. I'd like the equivalent to 3,250 Dollars, in Euros....

Hi,

Is this a Lucci and Sons or by the father? Also, what is the weight and hair length?

Best,
Gil

By the father. I bought it from him personally from Cremona.
As for the weight, not sure precisely, but its not on the heavy side. Despite that, its got a big sound. It was tried against a Hudson, Fritsch, and Grunberger, and, in my opinion, sounded bigger than most of those. Hair length...I can take a measurement for you, if you're genuinely interested.

I also have a certificate from Lucci. I've owned it since 2007.

Thanks for the inquiry

its got a nice camber to it, making it quite "nervous" good for sautille or spicatto strokes...in addition to allowing a big tone...

Thanks for your speedy response. I'm looking for a bright bow. How would you characterize this one? Also, the length is important to me, it can't be shorter than a typical Vigneron.

No problem, burning the midnight oil, this friday/saturday morning.... Are you looking for something mainly for orchestra playing? Or solos, chamber music? I'm not familiar with Vigneron, so I wouldn't be able to help you with that comparison, if you pm me your email address I'd gladly send you some photos.
I initially bought the bow because I was looking for a more "soloistic" kind of bow. Then I happened to try using in in an audition scenario, and it worked out quite well there too. Its not a heavy bow, and I think I might say its on the "brighter" side. I've had some "darker" bows, and this is certainly not that.
About the length, I'd really have to measure it for you.
Its a really fine bow. I've seen some luccis, and they are NOT all equal. This is certainly one of his finest examples.
