“The bow built for my foundation is fantastic and overwhelming in its quality and playability. As a regular customer for many years, Gregor Walbrodt is the first stop worldwide for me in things like rehairs or restorations.”

Gregor Walbrodt is the bow maker I trust, highly professional, with a clear sense of the musicians’ sound ideas and wishes. His work is always on point, and even with more complicated undertakings he finds very creative solutions. And always with a very charming sympathetic smile!

For many years now I have entrusted Gregor Walbrodt with my bows because of his detailed expertise, his personal creative enthusiasm and his delicate and precise way of working.
I also enjoy playing a Gregor Walbrodt bow, which never ceases to amaze me with its extremely clear and transparent bow sound. Through its precision, it provides my playing with a wealth of variability and expressivity.

I commissioned Gregor Walbrodt to make a gold mounted bow for me some years ago. I was thrilled to receive it. It is beautifully created, feels perfect under the hand and is a joy to make music with.
Bows, at least for us musicians, are all about the sound, and Mr Walbrodt’s bow gives me all the range of colours I need. I highly recommend his art.

Gregor Walbrodt has crafted two beautiful playing frogs for my bows, and his bow rehairs are always of the highest quality.

I‘m the lucky owner of a wonderful, gold-mounted bow, made by my good friend, the excellent bow-maker Gregor Walbrodt. The bow is pure joy, both esthetically and playing-wise, a true example of the outstanding craftmanship of his maker!
I also commissioned him to make a playing frog for a very special Sartory bow, and it looks and feels absolutely fantastic. Needless to say, since many years Gregor is also my first choice for bow rehair.
I recommend everyone who is interested in modern bows (and I think every string player should at least have one modern bow!) to visit Gregor Walbrodt in Berlin and check out his bows!
