CodaBow Diamond NX Violin Bow

Very Nice

I gave this bow to my 16 year-old daughter for Christmas. She has wanted a new bow for a while. Here's what she thinks of it: "It is a well balanced bow that makes playing very easy. It has a comfortable hold and beautiful sound." I agree, the sound is noticeably improved. She should be able to take her music to the next level with this bow.

Quality Product at a Great Price Point

When I bought my CodaBow, I was really just going off of what I’d heard about them from other musicians - consistent production quality, a good price point, and a bit more warp-proof than a standard pernambuco bow. I wasn’t expecting a $500 bow to knock the socks off a $2500 wood bow, like some people says they do. Spoiler alert: they don’t! However, my bow has lived up to my expectations - it’s balanced, the weight is appropriate, and the construction feels sturdy. It would be very difficult to find a wood bow of comparable quality at a comparable price. It’s good enough to handle the big stuff (Beethoven, Paganini, Bach, etc.) without frustration beyond what is normal, and I am very happy with my purchase. That’s not everything, though. The warranty is pretty robust, at least on paper, and several online spaces I frequent suggest that CodaBow’s customer service is meaningful. Supposedly, you can actually get in touch with a real person who can help you in real ways with little hassle. To clarify, I haven’t had to make use of those services, and I hope I never have to, but they’re apparently there if you need them.

NX

I bought it for my daughter 13 years old. She likes it and her teacher told her her sound got better.
