CodaBow Review - Unboxing, Initial Thoughts and Demo (Escher & Escent)

[@therealshadowz4499]

loveee how you play the violin! Like I said piano and violin 2 of the best instruments ever made!

[@davidrussell1137]

You have that magic connection and are able to pull music right out of the air. Music loves you and we love you too !

[@Justine-Griffin]

Haha 🥰 Thank you!

[@Billy_Marrs]

Clear, professional and informative review ! I'm a total noob to bows and had no idea they were super technical - great stuff !

[@Justine-Griffin]

They really are! I didn't know the extent of it either until I started playing around with these and researching them.

[@mikeking2539]

Wow I never knew that violyn bows were so expensive! But I could knd of tell from you lovely smile which of the two bows you liked the best. Really hope that you love using it. Love your videos.

[@Bocki_der_Golem]

I think the Escher sounds a little bit warmer and softer, good choice!

[@Justine-Griffin]

I think so too! It's very subtle but I can tell a difference. :)

[@MickeyM2002]

I didn't know violin bows are that expensive. I'm not a violinist, I play other instruments. With the Escher the attack on the strings sounded better/direct and a 'warmer' sound, difficult to explain. I knew which one you would choose, saw it, and I know that feeling. Kept going back to that one and couldn't let it go :). Impressive that you noticed the weight difference. Great review! Edit: I'd never thought I would watch a review about bows. So great job! That's on you! hug!

[@Justine-Griffin]

Yep I agree! To me it had a slightly richer tone. And yea they are very expensive! Everything about violins is expensive haha

[@vanessaebony529]

oh yes they are. Then there are antique bows so like older than 1900s they can cost over 10,000. Like if i was a professional concert violinist I could justify that cost but if I spent that much my fiance would kill me

[@neeljani1]

Amazing!

[@darlenemcgrady9694]

Very helpful...thank you!

[@RichD5k]

Thanks for the review and tips. I'll probably go with a less expensive carbon fiber bow to start b/c I'm so new, but might consider these as skill level improves. Thanks Justine! 😊

[@Justine-Griffin]

That’s a good plan Rich! Glad my review helped!

[@palegringo5756]

I think it's pretty remarkable how you could feel the difference in two grams between the Escent and Escher. The level of control and balance that is required for this is mind boggling, but I am so happy that you do it well and shared with us. It's super cool to see you be excited about your music!

[@Justine-Griffin]

Ha! I thought that was pretty funny too when I weighed them after filming that. Thanks!

[@RockStarOscarStern634]

I love its color

[@joan6839]

Greetings from Barcelona!! Little John here❤️❤️

[@Justine-Griffin]

Hey hey!

[@Cristianinyj]

What mic do you use? Sounds so beautiful

[@Justine-Griffin]

Thanks! For the violin? It’s the DPA 4099. It’s amazing

[@Cristianinyj]

Thank you! You make it sound amazing!!

[@Cristianinyj]

I just bought the Escher bow!

[@elcbk460]

Thought I would get to hear these bows also used acoustically - without all the reverb & electronic fluff added! This tells me nothing of the scope of this bow - so, it must only be any good if the sound is doctored.

[@TheLightFish]

I thought the escher sounded nicer.

[@Justine-Griffin]

Agreed!

[@davyerni2136]

My toughts on a 1500 dollar bowstring . I can build 3 game pc,s for one of those. Jeeeeeeez crazy prices. 🫖🍪

[@tomsmart1970]

That's a very helpful comparison for anyone who is trying to decide between playing computer games versus the violin. For those of us looking to upgrade our violin bows without spending $5000 or more on a comparable pernambuco bow, this is a helpful review. Thanks, Justine.

@@tomsmart1970 that is exactly the point i rather game again.
