Perfect match!
Pros: Lightweight, flexible and balanced; beautiful round pernambuco wood stick and dark brown (almost black) wooden frog with mother of pearl eye; "W.Dorfler" signature; high quality natural hair; packed inside a very hard tube for postage protection; fast shipping
Cons: None
Other: This bow matches perfectly with my violin, the rosin used by TheStringZone on this bow is also perfect, it drastically enhanced the tone of my violin, and the bowing became very natural and smooth, allowing for a wider range of dynamics and control. I highly recommend!

found the following review helpful
Pros: It is pernambuco, and functions all right. It is a real bow, you can play with it (comparing to cheapest ones)
Cons: The stick looks thick and bulky (but weight is fine), our previous hidersine bow (about same price range) springed/hopped better
Other: I wish you stocked better quality bows in 3/4 size
