HorACE Bow Guide, a device for correcting bowing practice with a violin bow. Used a few times. No outer box. Quoted from the official website below: ■ Product Features The guide part is made of lightweight and durable polycarbonate resin, weighing only about 26 grams (for 4/4 to 1/2 size). The guide has a round arch shape, so there is no discomfort when operating the bow, and it is transparent, so it does not feel much discomfort to the player's view. In addition, the compact design allows bowing practice to be done very close to the end of the bow. The edges of the guide, where the bow stick is likely to touch, are designed and manufactured to be rounded, so there is less worry about scratching the bow during bowing, which is one of the recommended points. The guide gently guides the bow to the correct angle. The mounting and fixing parts that touch the instrument are also minimal, so there is almost no adverse effect on suppressing the sound of the instrument. It is a product that has been carefully designed and considered in various aspects, and has been evaluated in 5 countries including Japan and has obtained a patent (Utility Model Registration No. 3176819). ■ Applicable Sizes and Storage Can be used for adult violins 4/4 size, and fractional violins 3/4 and 1/2 size for children. The legs can be folded small, making it easy to store and convenient to carry. ■ How to Attach First, place the instrument in a stable place, such as on your knees. Hold the legs of the bow guide with your thumbs and index fingers. The legs are made of elastic silicone material. Squeeze lightly with your thumb and index finger, and slightly narrow the space between the left and right legs. Then, release your fingers so that the concave part of the legs touches the C-curve edge of the top plate body. It's complete with just this, so there's almost no worry about scratching the violin when attaching it. Removing it is also a simple task. The ease of attachment and detachment also greatly affects motivation in daily practice. Eliminates the "bow wobble" that can be a source of trouble for beginners, and allows you to play with a beautiful tone! #violin #bowing #correction #bowing correction
