I have been talking to Connie Sunday lately more than ever (who was mentioned several times in the last issue of the Strad). We are good friends now and all of a sudden she offered to sell me one of her old bows. It is a Karl Knilling (german made) pernambuco octagon stick that is currently being rehaired and she claims it is as good as the $500 bows. I wanted a good bow and didnt know what to get, it looks like this is my answer and for only $125 - not including shipping. So it seems my bow delemma has been resolved.
Connie has her own online violin shop and is an honest teacher, also her webpage has many interesting articles so I encourage all to visit her page and her store, just click on the link to the right.
Now if only my delemma about the Cubs winning the series and the OSU Buckeyes winnig another national championchip could be resolved. I guess I will have to wait and see.
