No, cello cannot be played without bow. The bow is essential to produce the sound on the cello.
No, you cannot use a bass bow on a cello. The bow is too big and the cello is too small.
A bow is traditionally used to play the violin, but can also be used to play the cello. The bow is held in the right hand and the strings are drawn across the bow to create the sound. The cello bow is larger and heavier than the violin bow, but the same principles apply.
Cello bows absolutely make a difference! I would never play with any other kind of bow. The weight, shape, and size of a cello bow makes it the perfect tool for producing the most beautiful sound possible on the instrument.

a beautiful cello bow. Warm audio. My trainer said that because it was a mail-order bow, I was lucky that it was such a wonderful bow and that the tip was a little light. I'm not sure if they're consistently as good as one another. It virtually has the same sound quality as my J Tabary carbon fiber bow, which cost $1100 initially ($350 used

Yes, I adore this bow. The quality fully shines at this pricing point, and I was extremely happy with it.I went to a violin shop to try out bows even though I've been playing the cello for, what, 25 years now. I chose to test and play with a much more expensive carbon fiber bow and ended up using wood and carbon fiber. I really enjoyed it, but because I'm on a budget, I got this to compare.Compared to my wood bow, this one sounds darker and more muted. That was fantastic and ideal for me because my cello has a very bright resonance, which I adore, and the deeper overtones—I wouldn't even call them damping—really worked well. Sincerity be damned, the tone was virtually identical to the finer (and more expensive) carbon fiber bow I used. To find out if anyone could detect any difference at all, I even conducted rather scientific recording experiments. No change in tone.Although this bow seems heavier (a little chunkier), it is not in any way "cheap" heavy. Simply put, it's not a very light bow. I have used extremely light bows. They don't really appeal to me. So, once more, this is all very subjective.Last but not least, the hair is good and thick and has a lovely, velvety sound. When you change bow directions, you get that familiar, incredibly subtle whoosh sound. It has been bliss because I haven't played with a completely haired bow in a very long time.Okay, last but not least, I perform frequently, frequently playing loud settings. This will undoubtedly meet your needs if you need a gig or backup bow. I can say that this would stand up very well because I have damaged a few bows playing in clubs because the monitor volume was too low (my rock gigs, not classical, heh ;) (kind of a general statement re: carbon fiber). Oh, and lastly, I suspect that this is a composite, which accounts for the additional weight.Anyways. decent bow My liking

This violin bow arrived in immaculate shape. I was taken aback by the price and quality of this bow.Everything that has been said about it is true. The hairs weren't thinning out, and the bow like one of those pricy ones.The horse hairs accept rosin really well and tighten perfectly. It is small and plays the strings as well as any bow I have ever used after being rosined. When I bought this bow, there was just one review, and I concur with that reviewer. I firmly feel you won't regret purchasing this bow if you do...

I have only recently started taking cello lessons as an adult. My tutor advised me to swap out the bow that came with the cheap, low-quality cello. Even to my picky ears, I found this one to be rather decent after buying it. (I have been playing various instruments for a long time.) Since I have never played a string instrument before and the cello doesn't sound as good as my other instruments, it is a tremendous challenge for me. I did sound better with a deeper tone and less scratching thanks to my new bow. (also employing Jade rosin)Later, I noticed an advertisement for a carbon fiber bow (not from Amazon), which claimed that it is the new rage, stands up better, and has better sound for cheap bows. Despite the fact that it was more expensive, even on sale, I chose to purchase it because I felt I should have a backup. The bow made of carbon fiber is awful. I sound just like I did when I had the less expensive bow that came with the cello with it. It scratches more and has a thinner tone. I doubt I'll ever use it, so I'll still need to get a new bow. I'll probably purchase one of these from Amazon again.

My sister used one of my old violin bows when she lost her cello bow in high school and never bought a replacement. So that she would at least have something designed for her instrument, I bought this for her. become the finest purchase ever! While it might not be of professional quality, this bow was far better than the plastic one the cello arrived with and it was ideal for her. It had better handling and offered her a better sound. Consequently, she offers a cheap upgrade from her student bow. She will use this until she has enough money to buy a better bow for herself, but in the meantime, she adores it. (As with any new bow, be careful to really, really rosin it up. When I realized that I hadn't put enough rosin for the bow to properly catch the strings, I almost forgot that and panicked out that I had purchased a bow that wouldn't function.)

Very good cello bow that is reasonably priced and of good quality. Absolutely no complaints. High end ones are usually more expensive, but they truly provide the same function.Because my son and my friend's son will trade Christmas gifts, I bought this as a gift. The boy has been studying cello for two years. He once remarked that his bow is a touch heavy and too old. Someone said that this one ought to be good. The boy claims that it is actually good, perfectly fitting, and comfortable. It also produces a perfect sound when slightly more rosin is added the first time.
There are a few things you can look for when trying to determine if a cello is good quality. One is the wood grain - it should be straight and close together. Another is the varnish - it should be smooth and even. Finally, you should check the sound - it should be full and resonant. If you're unsure, it's always best to consult with a professional.
There are a few things to consider when choosing a cello bow. The first is the size of the bow. You will need to make sure that the bow is the right size for your cello. The second is the weight of the bow. You will want to make sure that the bow is not too heavy or too light for your cello. The third is the balance of the bow. You will want to make sure that the bow is balanced correctly so that you can play it comfortably. The fourth is the material of the bow. You will want to make sure that the bow
A cello bow should last for many years with proper care. Rosin will need to be applied regularly to keep the bow hair in good condition. The bow should be stored in a cool, dry place when not in use. The bow should be rehaired every one to two years to keep it playing its best.
A cello bow typically costs between $600 and $1,200. You can find bows made of different materials, such as carbon fiber or brazilwood, and with different features, such as a frog or slide. Ultimately, the cost of the bow depends on the quality of the materials and the craftsmanship.
The cost of having a cello bow rehaired can vary depending on the quality of the bow and the type of hair that is used. The average cost for a basic bow rehair is around $30, but this can increase to over $100 for a high-end bow. The type of hair that is used also affects the cost, with synthetic hair being the cheapest option and natural horsehair being the most expensive.
Cello strings should be replaced every 3-6 months, or when they start to sound dull.
