Reid Hudson German Bow FOR SALE

[stevencake]

I bought this bow at the Cincinnati Bass Cellar while studying for my Master's degree at the Cincinnati Conservatory of Music with Albert Laszlo. I really loved this bow and the terrific sound it helped me create. I don't play anymore and I would like to see someone use it instead of just letting it sit around my house.

Here are the exact details as written up for insurance purposes:

German Style Bass Bow

Octagonal pernambuco stick, the head is faced with bone. The frog is ebony with a silver ferrule and underslide, mother of pearl slide, silver and ebony turning pin.

Made and branded by its maker, Reid Hudson. Length of stick, not including nipple is 69.9cm. Weight with hair is 137.12 gm.

Current value is $2,900 (As of April 2002)

I am selling this bow for $1700.

Hope to hear from you soon.

Do you still have this bow? Could you describe the condition of the hair - could it be evaluated without first replacing the hair?
