The Eastman BL20 Violin Bow is an entry-level brazilwood bow designed for students on a budget. Using old-fashioned construction methods, the Eastman bowmakers start with strong, aged brazilwood sticks to construct a traditional bow. The BL20 Violin Bow features ebony frogs fully mounted in nickel-silver and mother-of-pearl, leather and imitation whalebone grips and quality unbleached Mongolian horsehair for optimal playability.
