Codabow Escent Viola Bow Overview
The Codabow Escent Viola Bow is suited to advancing and ambitious players seeking greater expression and technical freedom. Designed as a master-level model, it combines the supple response associated with fine Pernambuco bows with the lively articulation of Codabow's modern performance designs. Its hybrid fibre construction blends advanced and organic materials to create a responsive feel with clear, vibrant tonal colour. A pure Kevlar acoustic core adds strength and power while maintaining sensitivity, helping you shape dynamics and phrasing with confidence.
In-Touch technology connects the player directly to the tip through strategically placed carbon fibres, enhancing tracking, stability, and response. The centred balance and moderate-supple action encourage agile handling across a wide range of techniques. Finished with an Xebony frog and GlobalBow construction, the Escent offers a practical alternative to traditional materials while remaining ready for performances, travel, and varied musical settings.

The Escent is designed for players looking to broaden both their technical and artistic capabilities. Its responsive feel encourages a deeper connection with the string, allowing greater control over articulation, phrasing, and tone production. Whether you're preparing for examinations, performing with ensembles, or exploring different musical styles, the bow provides the flexibility needed to adapt. The combination of lively response and clear tonal character helps bring confidence to demanding repertoire while supporting continued musical development as your playing progresses.
Inspired by tradition, refined for today
Advanced and organic fibres are carefully blended to create a playing experience that draws inspiration from fine traditional bows while benefiting from modern materials. This construction delivers natural responsiveness and expressive tonal qualities without sacrificing consistency. Players can enjoy a clear, vibrant sound with the sensitivity needed for nuanced musical expression. The result is a bow that feels comfortable across a wide range of repertoire, offering the versatility required by musicians who regularly move between performance settings, genres, and playing styles.
Direct energy transfer for precise control
In-Touch technology uses unidirectional carbon fibres running from button to tip, helping transfer your movements efficiently throughout the bow. This design improves lateral stability, enhances tracking, and delivers a quick response to subtle changes in technique. The moderate-supple action and medium-soft stiffness profile contribute to a refined playing feel, allowing smooth string crossings and controlled articulation. For players seeking greater precision without sacrificing flexibility, this design provides a responsive platform that supports both technical accuracy and expressive performance.
Built for performance and travel
The Escent combines practical durability with premium appointments, including sterling silver fittings, sterling silver winding, a Moroccan leather grip, and Gold Medal horsehair. Its Xebony frog offers the appearance and feel of traditional ebony while helping reduce reliance on endangered resources. GlobalBow construction contains no endangered, regulated, or monitored wildlife materials; helping musicians travel internationally without the restrictions often associated with traditional bow materials. This makes the Escent a dependable choice for players balancing lessons, performances, auditions, and travel.
