――――
This is truly one of the best playing bows I have ever held.
Perhaps it's not a full-size bow, or perhaps it was made more freely in an era before strict adherence to modern standards...

The uncertainty makes it intriguing, but what's truly remarkable is its performance.
It's so light that you might wonder if it can even function as a bow (it's actually too light by modern standards), yet it performs its job perfectly.

...In short, it's incredibly easy to play.

That's all there is to it.
I could use many words to describe its balance, flexibility, responsiveness, etc., but they aren't necessary. It possesses something beyond those qualities, an inexplicable something (though it could likely be analyzed).
It's easy to play, feels good to play, and allows you to execute the exact playing you intend.

If you are looking for a bow like this, please consider it.
Given this strong endorsement, I will also accept returns.

There were times I considered selling it due to its size, but I couldn't part with it. For example, when I was unsure about choosing a bow, I would return to this one to reaffirm what easy playability felt like.

Circumstances now require me to make a decision, and I've decided to let it go.
The hair was replaced about six months ago with Canadian horsehair. (It still has plenty of life left, having been played for less than 10 hours total.)
There are no cracks or bends.

I am listing this quickly and will add a video as soon as possible.
