Changing my Bow line-up after 10 years..

After further testing. The Slaviero is the bow that is more versatile for me over the Lotte. The Proietti has been sold.

And now.. The Eibert has been sold as well. The only two bows I currently own and use are the Slaveiro and the Lotte. I switch back and for the between them depending on the bass, strings, music and most of all, how I feel.

At the 2019 ISB last June I found a new bow stamped E.Sartory attributed to Morizot who actually worked for and made bows for Sartory so, I put the Lotte up for sale and bought the Sartory-Morizot on the spot.

As I keep on average 2-3 basses for personal use, I needed a 3rd bow and I got back in trade with a bass sale a nice Italian bow I had sold just a few years earlier. Andrea Proietti, Cesena, Italy c.2014.

So, the line up now is Slaviero, Sartory-Morizot and Proietti..
