CodaBow Marquise GS Viola Bow

Master-level carbon fiber artistry with vibrant sound and refined handling

The CodaBow Marquise GS Viola Bow is a master-level carbon fiber viola bow created for players who want exceptional sensitivity, vibrant tonal color, and the polished handling associated with fine traditional bows. The Marquise GS is considered the "Gold Standard" of master bows, built from centuries of bow-making tradition and decades of experience to deliver expressive sound and exquisite control. Its professional character makes it especially appealing for serious performers, dedicated teachers, and advanced violists seeking a bow with elevated nuance, resonance, and responsiveness.

Built with a Natural Acoustic Core and unidirectional carbon fiber running continuously from button to tip, the Marquise GS is designed to give players a more connected sense of the bow's full-length response while preserving warmth, vibrancy, and flexibility. In-Touch? architecture, a Xebony frog made from natural fibers and resin, and GlobalBow designation for easier international travel add to its sophisticated feel and modern reliability. The result is a refined carbon fiber viola bow that balances contemporary durability with an expressive, supple playing experience suited to demanding repertoire and performance use.
