Here's FMs carbon Fiber. I think it a great bow http://fiddlershop.com/accessories/bows

But there was a guy that one of the first on this forum selling some great bows. He wasn't much of a nice man but I did buy 4 of his bows and they are wonderful that I like better than carbon fiber bows. I would probably go with FMs above suggestion. I'm still a beginner player but own quit a few bows and violins and try them all out.

myguitar now, read my posts again lol, I was not asking for those FM carbon fiber bows, but with the specific silver string and fleur-de-lys on the ebony frog. I was asking him if he has a way to get those bows I saw elsewhere. By thanks for trying to help cheers

I'll find out the weight but remember that this is a pernambuco bow. I can get you one for $90.

Pierre are you saying I should go for the pernambuco instead of the carbon?

No,

I just had a great price on this bow with the fleur di lys as you wanted. Not saying that it isn't good, I just don't know.
