I’m glad to write you that I decided to keep the bow with me. I like it very much. As my former bow was too flexible, I could not do well with your bow on the first day. On the second day, however, I began to like it. I showed it to my teacher, Ms Setsuko, and she assured me that I should have it. She praised your bow in detail, but I cannot translate her delicate expression from Japanese to English. I think I will use this for my life long (maybe 15 or 20 years). Thank you.

Praise for Ashmead Bows

I just want to let you know that I’m very pleased with the bows you’ve sent and that the students are benefiting from their use. Their public debut will take place in February in performances of music of Mozart and Haydn. Thanks as ever for your excellent craftsmanship and service.
