Description

If you live in a remote area or have difficulty finding a good rehair we have the solution. We can rehair your bow to the highest standard with top quality white hair. We have many professional players who use our service and we are confident you will be very impressed with the results. The effect of a good rehair on tone production can be quite substantial.

- Leather Thumbpiece and/or Silver-Lapping work does NOT include a re-hair. A re-hair is priced separately.

- If you'd like these extra improvements made to your bow then please add them to your basket in ADDITION to the re-hair.

How it works:

Place your order according to whether you need a tube or not. We will send you labels and a tube if ordered, enabling you to forward your bow to our workshop. We recommend using either Royal Mail Special Delivery or a trackable Courier service e.g. via www.parcel2go.com. When the work is complete your bow will be returned to you by Special Delivery (included in the price), usually, in 7-10 days. Please call us on 01273 446809 if you require further details or advice.

If we consider additional work is advised or that the quality of the bow does not justify a rehair we will contact you to discuss this. If you require an estimate or quote for other work please contact us in advance.

Please note: we cannot work on any bows with clip-in, removable, re-hair systems. If you are at all unsure as to whether your bow is fit for us to work on, please contact us before sending your bow to the workshop.

We use white hair for our Bass bow re-hairs. Please be advised our bow tube will not fit a German style bass bow.

PLEASE DO NOT SEND YOUR BOW TO US BEFORE RECEIVING THE LABELS. OUR BOW WORKSHOP IS AT A DIFFERENT ADDRESS

Easy service to access

Pros: I liked the ability to access the service without travelling somewhere to drop off and that you sent the tube and detailed instructions

Cons: I didn't receive the bow back within the timescales on the form and was a little concerned. However, when queried, you were very quick to respond and offer to check for me.
