Voxy Bows: A New Voice for String Players
Review - Skip to Pricing Info - Buy a Voxy Bow
Note from Rhiannon: I once destroyed a lovely wood bow by dropping it only four short inches to a carpeted floor. Game over. Replacing it with another expensive wood bow was fleeting since it would not survive long in a hostile environment (ie: among music students and a curious toddler).
My next investment had to be tough, but it couldn't hold me back musically. I invested in carbon fibre (fiber) and never turned back.
"Voxy Bows Are Affordable; Great Value"

Carbon fibre (fiber) bows come at a fraction of the price of a pernambuco stick because of the cost-effective materials used and the decreased man hours in their construction. By purchasing a carbon fiber bow you are also playing your part towards decreasing deforestation.
As for durability, carbon bows are nearly immune to warping or breaking due to their durable design and strong carbon material. They will not warp when left tight overnight, though this could still stretch the hair but the stick remains unharmed.
Voxy bows are played by beginner to intermediate students and make a great backup bow for more advanced players. Our opinion? The price is right and the quality is great, providing good value and a nice first carbon fibre bow.
Available in Three Finishes
Voxy Savvy bows have a solid carbon fibre construction with a smooth semi-gloss finish. |
Voxy Vogue bows are made from braided carbon fibre weave (similar to Coda's Diamond bows). |
Voxy Astute bows are a "carbon-buco" hybrid: A pernambuco exterior with a carbon fibre core. |
