    Double Bass Something loose/broken inside German Bass Bow

    Is this a Glasser bow? They have a weight inside the frog which sometimes comes loose. When the bow is rehaired it is easy to reattach the weight.

    Double Bass Old bow info needed.

    Does the screw go through the stick like this? It was standard in the second half of the 19th century.

    Double Bass Dragonetti's Bow

    I believe that Dragonetti's original bow and the bass were restored a few years ago - see some details here: http://www.contrabbassi.it/restauro.html Does anyone have more pictures of the bow?

    Double Bass Should I try a rehair on a cheap bow?

    See here for an upcoming tutorial on bow rehairing by Craig Tucker - http://www.violins.ca/forums/viewtopic.php?t=1656 He's a well known bow rehairer and used to have a video.

    Double Bass PW Bryant (bowmaker)

    It sounds like you knew him, Bowmaker! Do you have any information on his replica 'period' bows?

    Double Bass contemporary bass bow makers

    Sorry, I don't. But not cheap I think. Lazzarato was the maker who restored Dragonetti's bow a few years ago. Ariente is the bow consultant to the major European historical collections. So, they are not beginners!
