The ELS BA-10/12 is a reliable half-size viola bow, specially designed for young beginners looking for a solid and affordable first bow. Made of sturdy Brazilwood, this bow offers good balance and control, which supports the learning process and helps develop a stable bowing technique. The octagonal shape provides extra grip, which is important for young players with smaller hands.
The bow features an ebony frog with a single eye, a three-piece knob, and a faux whalebone winding, giving it a polished appearance and added durability. As part of the ELS – European Luthier Supplies collection, the BA-10 offers excellent value and is available in several children's sizes, including this half-size version.
