Double Bass Bow tip repair

[natbers78]

I was playing tonight and the tip of my bow broke and fell off. See pic. This is a J. Grunberger bow (carbon, I think). Is this repairable? If so, how serious of a repair are we talking? Probably expensive. Thanks for your insight.
At any rate, I’m sure my wife and kids are relieved they don’t have to listen to dad sawing away on the doghouse tonight! Joke’s on them... I have a spare bow!!

$100 problem. How quickly you get it back depends on the skill of your repair person.

Good archetiers who’ve done that job for me have confessed they needed multiple tries.

Well, that’s promising. I’m not a pro anymore and don’t rely on my bow often, so timeline can be flexible. Thanks for the reply.

I did mine when I got a rehair last year, the tip was only mostly broken. The guy did the rehair and new tip for under $200.

The (blank, needing to be fit/cut/glued) part is roughly $10-15 in plastic or bone, on a quick look. The rest is labor, other than if you want fancy or restricted materials.

Thank you!

Three options:

-You have all the pieces, glue them on. Put the hair in and the tip wood. If it sticks fine, otherwise get a rehair.
-Replace bone. Put the hair in and the tip wood.
-Get it done by a luthier.
