The Animando viola bow is a good choice for both beginning and advanced players. The bow is very stable in balance and produces a clear, warm tone. An added advantage is that it is very robust and can withstand impact.

The Animando brand is Strijkinstrumentenshop.nl's own brand and, thanks to its own imports, is competitively priced compared to other carbon bow brands.

Carbon fiber is a material composed of extremely thin carbon fibers, which are combined with a resin to create an extremely strong, stiff, and lightweight composite.

The advantage of carbon fiber is that quality is guaranteed and all bows are virtually identical, while wooden bows can vary in quality.
