Arcus M Series Cello Bows

Manufacturer's Description

If you are looking for a bow that enhances the warmth in the sound of your instrument, an Arcus M is most probably the right bow. It works really well with all smaller celli that are often a bit brighter in sound. The M-bows draw a very full, warm and rich sound which is also clear and provides good brilliance. They are good for the entire repertoire and provide great comfort, so that even after long hours of playing the bow arm still feels light and relaxed.

Travel with Your Arcus Bow

Arcus bows contain no ivory, tortoiseshell, lizard skin, or other controlled species. You may travel with your Arcus bow with no worries or hassles.

Support IPCI with Your Purchase

Help preserve the Atlantic Rainforest of Brazil, where Pernambuco wood (Caesalpinia Echinata) is grown. A portion of the proceeds from every bow we sell is donated to the International Pernambuco Conservation Initiative. To learn more about IPCI and how you can help, please visit www.ipci-usa.org.

Please note: Although we stock some models, with over 100 variations, we are unable to physically stock them all. We, therefore, obtain many Arcus bows from the US Arcus distributor, as needed. As such, we do not have up-to-the-minute stock information available, here. In the event that your selected bow is not immediately available, we'll let you know within one business day, and allow you to cancel, backorder, or select a different model.   Please note that payment is authorized at time of order, which can result in a hold to your payment account. Authorization holds cannot be canceled and may take up to 10 days to expire. If you'd like to confirm stock prior to placing your order, please call or email and we'll be happy to help. Thank you for your understanding!

A word about Arcus bow winding: Arcus has two types of winding - a plain silver/gold winding and a winding with alternating black and silver/gold (a.k.a. imitation whalebone). Please note that the winding is not predictable, but is chosen by Arcus for each particular bow to achieve an ideal balance. Regardless of what is pictured in this stock photo, your bow may come with a different style of winding. If you have a preference, please feel free to contact us about it prior to placing your order.

Five stars

I could not expect a better customer service or a more personable business owner. All my questions were swiftly answered and arrangements made to let me try several bows beyond the trial period. I will definitely return to Fisher Violins for my future purchases.

Excellent sound, easy to play

We purchased an Arcus M4 full size cello bow, with black & silver winding ... unfortunately, unknown to us and F.S. Fischer (and all other US companies selling this bow, I checked after the bow arrived and looked different than expected!) the manufacturer recently changed the style of the bow to a plain silver winding and a plain silver button (tightening knob). Jim Fisher was great and was able to get one of the discontinued bows with the black & silver winding for us quickly. Honestly, both the new and the old styles sound great, and both are similarly light and easy to play. Our son gets a very full, sweet and bright sound on the slower pieces. Good on the livelier pieces due to its light weight, though maybe could be a tiny bit more responsive/ "sticky" on the spiccato and accents.
