Excellent violin bow by Roger Lotte, strong and active, with a great sound.

With its rare combination of tonal and playing qualities, this like-new French violin bow is a true rarity that was crafted around 1950 by Mirecourt maker Roger Lotte, the son of the famous bow maker François Lotte. The round stick is unbranded, it was made of finest red-brown pernambuco wood and features a rare combination of strength and elastic activity and feels light weight in the hand, so that this Roger Lotte bow allows both higher pressure and soft fluid play, as well as active bouncing techniques. The powerful head with elegant lines represents the high quality of Roger Lotte craftsmanship, as well as the nickel mounted ebony frog with a Pearl eye. The sensed balance-point of the violin bow is broadly centered, slightly inclined to the lower half of the stick. French violin bows of this quality are internationally sought after, and Mirecourts excellent reputation is approved by this versatile Roger Lotte bow suitable for professionals that features a warm, clear sound, precise and full of volume - undamaged and ready to play after a complete work-over by the experienced luthiers at Corilon.
