BOW REHAIRING
We offer a premium bow rehair service, which is available on Wednesdays by appointment only.
Our horse hair is top grade, sourced from Northern Mongolia; our London supplier has an excellent reputation amongst top bow makers world-wide.
Rehairing your bow can vastly improve sound quality. As hair wears out it becomes smooth, losing its grip on strings. As hair thins it can distort and bend the wood due to the uneven tension. Distortion requires recambering, a time-intensive and therefore expensive process.
If you are playing regularly, we recommend rehairing your bow every 6 months, or at least once a year.
we rehair bows for violin, viola, cello and double bass.
Bows can be sent to us by post for rehairing or can be delivered to our shop.
Please book with us in advance if it is your first time rehairing with us or if you will be sending your bow from outside of New Zealand.
