Bowing with a Smandle Bow on EUB   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #2901 of 2965 |
I would like to know if anyone on this egroup uses a smandle German Bow on the
Elecrtic Upright. I play with a stagg Electric Upright, and play with a German
Bow. But I am having trouble using this bow on the Electric UPright. I seen a
cello bow used on a EUB, if you can please write me back with your best
advice.What is the best bow that can be used on the EUB?
