Arcus T-Series

Hollow carbon fiber bow series (violin, viola, cello)

The Arcus T-Series is a line of hollow carbon fiber bows introduced in 2019 and among Arcus's best-selling models. Built on Arcus's signature thin-walled, hollow carbon fiber construction, T-series bows are described as truly universal and perfectly balanced: full, round, and warm but also brilliant and colorful, with elasticity that fits regular instruments and medium-gauge strings. The series is offered for violin, viola, and cello, with individual bows graded by performance class.

  • Arcus

    Arcus is a German carbon fiber bow maker founded by Bernd Müsing, who began researching bows in 1995 and first sold Arcus bows in 1999. Based in Würzburg, Germany, the company applies engineering and materials know-how from Müsing's earlier bicycle-frame manufacturing to bow making. Arcus bows use a signature very thin-walled, hollow carbon fiber stick with slightly reduced camber, making them notably lighter yet higher in tension than traditional wooden bows and optimized for modern strings. Every bow is made entirely by hand for violin, viola, cello, and double bass, with the current range organized into the T, S, P, M, and G series.
