Double Bass Bow for Warwick Triumph Electric

[DBENT]

New to the upright scene and breaking in with an electric warwick triumph (not rockbass..).

I want to get into the world of using a bow. Yet I have zero experience with a bow.

What is a decent midgrade bow? Something equivalent to a Mexican or Japanese Fender bass of the bass world. Not a Squier. Not an american P/jazz bass. Decent bow that plays nice but doesnt have all the bells and whistles.

Thanks much! Sorry for terrible scenario explanation of what im looking for.

I would choose a carbon bow up to € 250.-,most offerings above € 100.- will be useable. Size should be 3/4 or 4/4 with natural hair. You need a rosin too,my personal choice is Thomastik soft. I would avoid the popular sticky Pops rosin in summer.
First you have to define, if german or french grip, depending on what your teacher uses.
If you decide on french bow, avoid heavy bows as a beginner. Then order from Golihur, Thomann or other known online store specialized in music, depending on where you live.
If it is possible to go with your teacher to a local music store and select from several offerings by trial and error, that is the absolut best.
