The Escent

Revolutionary Xebony® Frog Design

On the CodaBow Escent Viola Bow, CodaBow uses their Xebony® composite material to create an innovative frog architecture. This elegant design offers elevated agility and articulation in performance while the contoured thumb pocket fosters increased connection.

Natural Acoustic Core

This viola bow features an intricately fashioned natural acoustic core that consists of an exclusive blend of natural fibers delivering an unburdened and focused tonal experience.

Unidirectional Carbon Fiber Construction

Created by innovators in the industry, the bow structure includes strategically constructed carbon fiber that runs seamlessly from button to tip to create deepening string connection and clear tonal color. Furthermore, this technology allows a player's fingertips to feel the full-length dynamics and response of the bow in an entirely new way, mirroring the grain pattern of the finest Pernambuco bows.
