Description Brand: Berg Exact Year: 1988 Type: violin Country/Region of Manufacture: United States Model: Gulli Model
Professional level, silver mounted, carbon fiber bow by bowmaker, Michael F. Duff. Bow #3H4 is a Gullli model (medium strong) 61 grams. Currently, Berg Bows are going for between $3,000 and $7,500. I did not see any for sale on the internet, indicating that players tend to keep them.This bow gets a strong, clear, sound, even from frog to tip. It is particularly good in high positions.Spiccato is clear (not scratchy). The transition from on and off the string is particularly easy. Being carbon fiber, it is incredibly robust.A handwritten letter from Michael Duff authenticating the bow comes with the bow. I've included a photo of the entire letter, and a closeup that might be easier to read.
